© 2017 IEEE. "To be considered for the 2017 IEEE Jack Keil Wolf ISIT Student Paper Award." We show that the reliable communication through a classical-quantum channel is possible when the transmission rate approaches the channel capacity sufficiently slowly. This scenario exists between the non-vanishing error probability regime, where the rate tends to capacity with a fixed error, and the small error probability regime, where the error vanishes given a rate below capacity. The proof employs a sharp concentration bound in strong large deviation theory, and the asymptotic expansions of the error-exponent functions.
