rate at which the best achievable decoding error probability falls exponentially with block length for a channel at a given rate.

In communications engineering, error exponent refers to rate at which the best achievable decoding error probability falls exponentially with block length for a channel at a given rate. This meaning comes from Gallager (1965) in IEEE Transactions on Information Theory.[1]
