  • Abstract
    This paper gives analytical derivations and graphical illustrations of the association factor, the stationary proportion of ONE´S, the symbol entropy, and the autocomparison function, as functions of the transition probabilities, for the 2-state first-order Markov chain. These properties of the chain have been found useful in the solution of certain practical problems in the field of information transmission.
