The DHS recode manual will show you where all the variables you need are - link here:

I don't know what you mean by "some variables which are drive from other variables like infant mortality", but information on calculating child mortality rates can be found in the DHS guide to statistics:

If you have any specific problems after looking these over, please follow up here and I'll see if I can help.
