Coding with finite block-length. Coding/decoding methods are today able to reach the Shannon capacity limit for large block lengths. But what is the limit at smaller block lengths, and are we able to reach it? This is the aim of this research that builds upon some recent results by Polyanskiy, Poor and Verdu.
