Applied Digital Information theory

This note serves as a comprehensive guide to fundamental concepts in information theory and coding. This pdf provides discrete probability theory, information theory, and coding principles. Beginning with Shannon's measure of information, then delves into the efficient coding of information, the methodology of typical sequences is introduced, emphasizing the distinction between lossy and lossless source encoding. The text also discusses coding for noisy digital channels, block coding principles and tree and trellis coding principles.
