  • Abstract
    We show that the meta-converse bound derived by Polyanskiy et al. provides the exact error probability for a fixed joint source-channel code and an appropriate choice of the bound parameters. While the expression is not computable in general, it identifies the weaknesses of known converse bounds to the minimum achievable error probability.
