  4. Abstract:
  5. In this paper, we study the problem of simulating a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) from another DMC under an average-case and an exact model. We present several achievability and infeasibility results, with tight characterizations in special cases. In particular, for the exact model, we fully characterize when a binary symmetric channel can be simulated from a binary erasure channel when there is no shared randomness. We also provide infeasibility and achievability results for the simulation of a binary channel from another binary channel in the case of no shared randomness. To do this, we use the properties of Rényi capacity of a given order. We also introduce a notion of 'channel diameter' which is shown to be additive and satisfy a data processing inequality. © 2017 IEEE
