Strong Converse Theorem

The Strong Converse Theorem is a fundamental result in information theory which asserts that if the transmission rate exceeds the channel capacity, the probability of error in communication approaches one exponentially fast as the block length increases, thereby sharply delineating capacity as a strict operational threshold.
