We consider single-hop broadcast erasure channels (BEC) with degraded message sets and instantaneous feedback regularly available from all receivers, and demonstrate that the main principles of the virtual queue-based algorithms in [1], which were proposed ...
This paper develops a new communication strategy, ergodic interference alignment, for the K-user interference channel with time-varying fading. At any particular time, each receiver will see a superposition of the transmitted signals plus noise. The standa ...

Convolutional low-density parity-check (LDPC) ensembles, introduced by Felstrom and Zigangirov, have excellent thresholds and these thresholds are rapidly increasing functions of the average degree. Several variations on the basic theme have been proposed ...
In this paper, we study a Gaussian relay-interference network, in which relay (helper) nodes are to facilitate competing information flows between different source-destination pairs. We focus on two-stage relay-interference networks where there are weak cr ...

Polar coding is a recently invented technique for communication over binary-input memoryless channels. This technique allows one to transmit data at rates close to the symmetric-capacity of such channels with arbitrarily high reliability, using low-complex ...
This paper investigates polar coding schemes achieving capacity for the AWGN channel. The approaches using a multiple access channel with a large number of binary-input users and a single-user channel with a large prime-cardinality input are compared with ...

Link adaptation techniques are important modern and future wireless communication systems to cope with quality of service fluctuations in fading channels. These techniques require the knowledge of the channel state obtained with a portion of resources devo ...

We consider the problem of multicasting information from a source to a set of receivers over a network where intermediate network nodes perform randomized linear network coding operations on the source packets. We propose a channel model for the noncoheren ...

We present the acoustic equivalent of supercoupling through subwavelength channels. Extraordinary matched transmission, energy squeezing and anomalous quasistatic tunnelling through narrow channels are obtained for acoustic waves by designing a 2D, density ...
In this paper, we give a characterization of the rate region for the degraded two message set problem, applied to a combination network with erasure channels. We also provide an algorithm that uses topological information in order to deliver the two messag ...
