highest rate at which information can be sent over a noisy channel with zero probability of error, set by the channel's confusability graph.

In information theory, zero-error capacity refers to highest rate at which information can be sent over a noisy channel with zero probability of error, set by the channel's confusability graph. This meaning comes from Shannon (1956) in IEEE Transactions on Information Theory.[1]
