What are Channel Capacity and Code Rate?

Explains the concepts of Channel Capacity and Code Rate, and uses the binary symmetric channel (BSC) and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels as examples.

* Note that there is a typo in the video, where I missed out a "+1". The channel capacity for BSC equation should be 1+ p log(p) + (1-p) log(1-p) . Sorry about that.

* If you would like to support me to make these videos, you can join the Channel Membership, by hitting the "Join" button below the video, and making a contribution to support the cost of a coffee a month. It would be very much appreciated.
