On the capacity of certain additive non-Gaussian channels

A model of an additive non-Gaussian noise channel with generalized average input energy constraint is considered. The asymptotic channel capacityC_{zeta}(S), for large signal-to-noise ratioS, is found under certain conditions on the entropyH_{ tilde{ zeta}}( zeta)of the measure induced in function space by the noise processzeta, relative to the measure induced bytilde{zeta}, where is a Gaussian process with the same covariance as that ofzeta. IfH_{ tilde{zeta}}( zeta) < inftyand the channel input signal is of dimensionM< infty, thenC_{ zeta}(S)= frac{1}{2}M ln(1 + S/M) + Q_{zeta}( M ) + {o}(1), where0 leq Q_{ zeta}( M ) leq H_{ tilde{ zeta}}( zeta). If the channel input signal is of infinite dimension andH_{ tilde{ zeta}}( zeta) rightarrow 0forS rightarrow infty, thenC_{ zeta}(S) = frac{1}{2}S+{o}(1).
