Polar coding schemes for the AWGN channel

Emmanuel Abbé

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 ...

Channel State Feedback Over the MIMO-MAC

Krishna Kumar

In order to exploit the full multiplexing gain of multi-antenna multi-user downlink schemes, accurate channel state information at the transmitter (i.e., at the base station) is required. We consider the design of a closed-loop channel state information fe ...

Tight Bounds on the Capacity of Binary Input random CDMA Systems

Nicolas Macris, Satish Babu Korada

We consider multiple access communication on a binary input additive white Gaussian noise channel using randomly spread code division. For a general class of symmetric distributions for spreading coefficients, in the limit of a large number of users, we pr ...

Self-Synchronizing Properties of CSMA Wireless Multi-hop Networks

Patrick Thiran, Olivier Dousse, Kuang Xu

We show that CSMA is able to spontaneously synchronize transmissions in a wireless network with constant-size packets, and that this property can be used to devise efficient synchronized CSMA scheduling mechanisms without message passing. Using tools from ...

Polar coding: a brief tour

Emre Telatar

Arikan's 'polar coding' is a technique to achieve the symmetric capacity of binary input memoryless channels. In this talk I will attempt to describe this technique, and briefly discuss its extensions to q-ary input channels, multiple access channels and r ...

Cross-Layer Based Analysis of Multi-Hop Wireless Networks

Tarik Tabet

In this work, we revisit classical packet radio networks with a modern treatment of physical-layer (PHY) procedures, medium-access (MAC) and geographic channel-driven routing protocols. Our network model assumes that nodes are randomly distributed on the p ...

The Interference-Multiple-Access Channel

Emre Telatar, Suhas Diggavi, Etienne Perron

We introduce the interference-multiple-access channel, which is a discrete memoryless channel with two transmitters and two receivers, similar to the interference channel. One receiver is required to decode the information encoded at one transmitter, the o ...

Cooperative coding on orthogonal information networks

Dinkar Vasudevan

The focus of this thesis is on communication over cooperative information networks. In the first half of the thesis, we consider lossy source coding problems where a relay assists in the communication of a source stream between two terminals. The following ...

Efficient MAC in cognitive radio systems: A game-theoretic approach

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Mark Felegyhazi, Mario Cagalj

In this paper, we study the problem of efficient medium access control (MAC) among cognitive radio devices that are equipped with multiple radios and thus are capable of transmitting simultaneously at different frequencies (channels). We assume that radios ...

An Analytical Model for the Contention Access Period of the Slotted IEEE 802.15.4 with Service Differentiation

Giovanni De Micheli, Nadia Khaled, Eugène David Ngangue Ndih

The IEEE 802.15.4 standard is poised to become the global standard for low data rate, low energy consumption wireless sensor networks (WSN). By assigning the same sets of contention access parameters for all data frames and nodes, the contention access per ...
