Abstract :
The i.i.d. duplication channel which duplicates each symbol independently with a certain probability is studied. The contribution is twofold: first, a tight lower bound on the capacity of such channels is introduced. Second, the capacity is computed for the small values of the duplication probability using a series expansion representation.
