Abstract

Exponential error bounds achievable by universal coding and decoding are derived for frame-asynchronous discrete memoryless multiple access channels with two senders, via the method of subtypes, a refinement of the method of types. An empirical entropy decoder is employed. A key tool is an improved packing lemma, that overcomes the technical difficulty caused by codeword repetitions via an induction based new argument. The asymptotic form of the bounds admits numerical evaluation. This demonstrates that error exponents achievable by synchronous transmission can be superseded via controlled asynchronism, i.e. a deliberate shift of the codewords.
