Building on the work of Horstein, Shayevitz and Feder, and Naghshvar et al., this paper presents algorithms for low-complexity sequential transmission of a k-bit message over the binary symmetric channel (BSC) with full, noiseless feedback. To lower complexity, this paper shows that the initial k binary transmissions can be sent before any feedback is required and groups the messages with equal posteriors to reduce the number of posterior updates from exponential in k to linear in k. Simulations results demonstrate the achievable rates for this full, noiseless feedback system approach capacity rapidly as a function of k, significantly faster than the achievable rate curve of Polyanskiy et al. for a stop feedback system.
