	Channel capacity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		By the noisy-channel coding theorem, the channel capacity of a given channel is the limiting information transport rate (in units of information per unit time) that can be achieved with vanishingly small error probability.
		The key result states that the capacity of the channel, as defined above, is given by the maximum of the mutual information between the input and output of the channel, where the maximization is with respect to the input distribution.
		The channel coding theorem states that for any ε > 0 and for any rate less than the channel capacity, there is an encoding and decoding scheme that can be used to ensure that the probability of block error is less than ε > 0 for sufficiently long message block M.

	Predicting radio channel capacity
		The mathematics for calculating the throughput capacity of a data channel can be scaled with these analogous channel parameters to calculate the expected throughput capacity of voice messages in the conventional channel.

		The channel not only suffers from a rise in users trying to get "on the air," but the channel's capacity to handle this increasing load is reduced by the many users who forget their etiquette out of frustration.

		A study of the capacity of multiple element antenna systems is interested with the emphasis on the mutual coupling effects between the antenna elements.
		Since the channel capacity relates the channel impulse response matrix which is a matrix with entries as random variables, it is necessary to study how the radio channel changes with the different antenna separation, mutual coupling effects, and other fading correlation.
		It is necessary to put them together into the channel impulse responses so as to obtain the total channel impulse response and more accurate channel capacity evaluation.

		This number is derived when you multiply the 24 channels by the 8 bits contained in each.
		This means that the clear channel aggregate data rate is only 1.344 Mbps, which is derived when you multiply the 24 DS-0 channels by 56 kbps each.
		So, clear channel capacity explains why digital services only offer data rates in multiples of 56 kbps, since the other 8 kbps is lost to signaling.

		However, in both slotted and unslotted versions of the ALOHA scheme, the channel capacity is reduced when message switching is used instead of packet switching.
		Hence, the performance under message switching may be superior to or inferior to that under packet switching depending upon the random access scheme being used and the distribution of message length (usually a large coefficient of variation of message length implies a large degradation of channel capacity in this case) for certain random access schemes.
		Nevertheless, for radio channels, message switching can achieve larger channel capacity if appropriate CSMA schemes are used.
