Abstract

We study the Ahslwede–Han problem of a point-to-point communication with partial state information available at the destination. For a class of channels, by establishing a tight converse, we show that the Wyner–Ziv compression of the channel state treating the destination’s channel output as side information is optimal. This result is more general than the modulo-sum channel studied by Aleksic et al. and the symmetric binary erasure channel with two states studied by Tandon and Ulukus. Thus, for this more general class of channels, we prove the Ahlswede–Han conjecture.
