Abstract. The present communication deals with the development of new coding theorems in terms of channel equivocation, that is, coding is done for a source which selects a new set of source statistics after each output symbol is received from the channel. New proof for Fano's bound on Shannon's equivocation is provided by using log sum inequality. Moreover, bounds on various generalizations of Shannon's equivocation have been provided.
