Abstract
The content discusses the problem of transmitting parameter values over AWGN channels with the assistance of a helper. It delves into deriving upper and lower bounds on achievable error exponents, focusing on modulation and estimation techniques.

Stats
The decay exponent is significantly smaller than that dictated by the data-processing theorem.
For R ∈ [Rh, C0 + Rh), R' < Rh nats per time step can be conveyed with an arbitrarily large error exponent.
The optimal achievable error exponent at rate R over an AWGN channel is bounded from below as Ee(R) ≥ Ea(R - Rh).
