Channel Code Using Constrained-Random-Number Generator Revisited

A construction of a channel code by using a source code with decoder side information is introduced. The encoder and decoder pair of any source code can be used for the construction. Constrained-random-number generators, which generate random numbers satisfying a condition specified by a function and its value, are used to construct stochastic encoders and decoders. The result suggests that we can divide the channel coding problem into the problems of channel encoding and source decoding with side information.
