Abstract :
This paper proposes an explicit construction of codes achieving Shannon´s capacity for arbitrary discrete memoryless channels. The proposed codes are obtained by applying the idea of variable concatenation to a class of concatenated codes with employing algebraic geometry codes as outer codes. Further, we clarify that the error exponent of the proposed code is equal to the error exponent obtained by Forney (1966) for concatenated codes
