Abstract
We define protocol coding as a way to encode information in the actions taken by a communication protocol. In this work we investigate strategies for protocol coding via combinatorial ordering of the labelled user resources (packets, channels) in an existing, primary system. This introduces a new, secondary communication channel in the existing system, which has been considered in the prior work exclusively in a steganographic context. Instead, we focus on the use of secondary channel for reliable communication with newly introduced secondary devices, that are low-complexity versions of the primary devices, capable only to decode the robustly encoded header information in the primary signals. We introduce a suitable communication
model, capable to capture the constraints that the primary system puts on protocol coding. We derive the capacity of the secondary channel under arbitrary error models. The insights from the information–theoretic analysis are used to design practical error–correcting schemes for secondary channels based on trellis codes.
