Abstract
The application of Shannon´s coding theorem for noisy channels has been extensively studied in the literature in connection with symmetric channels. However, certain methods of modulation exist which endow the transmission channels with asymmetric properties. In the present paper, the capacity of asymmetric channels has been studied in terms of the probability of the possible errors. The theory sheds interesting light on pulse code modulation using amplitude keying.
