Abstract

The transmission capacity of a nonlinear classical communications channel that does not obey the well-known Shannon formula describing a linear additive channel is analyzed. According to the Landauer principle, no finite energy is required to transmit a bit of information, which, in principle, makes reversible data transmission possible. The process of data transmission is analyzed using a model of the transmitting medium representing a ferroelectric crystal possessing a center of symmetry. Using this model, it is possible to trace an analogy between the process of bit setting and transmission, on the one hand, and the violation of the lattice symmetry as a result of the second-order phase transition at the Curie temperature, on the other hand. An expression for the transmission capacity is obtained using the well-known cnoidal solution of the corresponding nonlinear equations in the absence of damping. The transmission capacity of an arbitrary nonlinear classical communication channel is estimated.
