Coding for Communications and Secrecy

Mani Bastaniparizi

Shannon, in his landmark 1948 paper, developed a framework for characterizing the fundamental limits of information transmission. Among other results, he showed that reliable communication over a channel is possible at any rate below its capacity. In 2008, ...

Secure Transmission on the Two-Hop Relay Channel With Scaled Compute-and-Forward

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

Abstract: In this paper, we consider communication on a two-hop channel in which a source wants to send information reliably and securely to the destination via a relay. We consider both the untrusted relay case and the external eavesdropper case. In the u ...

Classical Force Fields Tailored for QM Applications: Is It Really a Feasible Strategy?

Oliviero Andreussi

Classical molecular dynamics is more and more often coupled to quantum mechanical based techniques as a statistical tool to sample configurations of molecular systems embedded in complex environments. Nonetheless, the classical potentials describing the mo ...

Caching of Bivariate Gaussians with Non-Uniform Preference Probabilities

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Guillaume Jean Op 't Veld

Caching is technique that alleviates networks during peak hours by transmitting partial information before a request for any is made. We study this method in a lossy source coding setting with Gaussian databases. A good caching strategy minimizes the data ...

Spatial Multiplexing of QPSK Signals With a Single Radio: Antenna Design and Over-the-Air Experiments

Juan Ramon Mosig, Andreas Peter Burg, Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Mohsen Yousefbeiki, Andrew Charles Mallory Austin

This paper describes the implementation and performance analysis of the first fully operational beam-space multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna for the spatial multiplexing of two QPSK streams. The antenna is composed of a planar three-port radiat ...

Path integral approach to the quantum fidelity amplitude

Jiri Vanicek

The Loschmidt echo is a measure of quantum irreversibility and is determined by the fidelity amplitude of an imperfect time-reversal protocol. Fidelity amplitude plays an important role both in the foundations of quantum mechanics and its applications, suc ...

A compact, integrated silicon device for the generation of spectrally filtered, pair-correlated photons

Vincenzo Savona, Momchil Minkov

The third-order nonlinearity of silicon gives rise to a spontaneous four-wave mixing process in which correlated photon pairs are generated. Sources based on this effect can be used for quantum computation and cryptography, and can in principle be integrat ...

Converse Bounds for Noisy Group Testing with Arbitrary Measurement Matrices

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett

We consider the group testing problem, in which one seeks to identify a subset of defective items within a larger set of items based on a number of noisy tests. While matching achievability and converse bounds are known in several cases of interest for i.i ...
