A Tight Second-Order Converse Bound for Variable-Length Feedback Codes
A converse is derived, establishing the second-order fundamental limit for every positive-capacity discrete memoryless channel with finite $C_1$, which covers the moderate-deviations and error-exponent regimes, including polynomially decaying error probabilities.
