Abstract
In several practical settings we wish to communicate an identier based on
ash-
ing lights. The communication channels here use small alphabets, are error
prone, unsynchronized, and require short code words. Nevertheless the number
of identiers is relatively large. We model this situation as a cyclic shift channel
where the shift length equals the code wordlength. We study the behaviour of the
capacity of this channel and dene a class of self synchronized error correcting
codes.
