Recently, Shayevitz and Feder introduced an individual sequence formulation of channel coding and an elegant scheme that adapts Horstein's scheme to this setting. Shayevitz and Feder's scheme requires both full-rate passive channel output feedback as well as a lower-rate active feedback channel. We show how to eliminate the need for full-rate passive channel output feedback by using common randomness and limited active feedback in the style of Hybrid ARQ while still asymptotically achieving the empirical capacity.
