Shannon Meets Carnot: Mutual Information Via Thermodynamics
In this contribution, the Gaussian channel is represented as an equivalent thermal system allowing to express its input-output mutual information in terms of thermodynamic quantities. This thermodynamic description of the mutual information is based upon a generalization of the 2 thermodynamic law and provides an alternative proof to the Guo-Shamai-Verdú theorem, giving an intriguing connection...
متن کاملThermodynamic equipartition for increased second law efficiency
In this work, a clear distinction is drawn between irreversibility associated with a finite mean driving force in a transport process and irreversibility associated with variance in the spatial and/or temporal distribution of this driving force. The portion of irreversibility associated with driving force variance is quantified via a newly defined dimensionless quantity, the equipartition facto...
متن کاملKalman meets Shannon
We consider the problem of communicating the state of a dynamical system via a Shannon Gaussian channel with a given power constraint and no feedback. The transmitter observes a possibly noisy measurement of the state. These measurements are then used to encode the message to be transmitted over a noisy Gaussian channel, where a power constraint is imposed on the transmitted message. The receiv...

We study the conditions of validity of the generalized second law in phantom dominated era. PACS: 98.80.-k, 98.80.Jk
متن کاملTen Proofs of the Generalized Second Law
Ten attempts to prove the Generalized Second Law of Thermodyanmics (GSL) are described and critiqued. Each proof provides valuable insights which should be useful for constructing future, more complete proofs. Rather than merely summarizing previous research, this review offers new perspectives, and strategies for overcoming limitations of the existing proofs. A long introductory section addres...
