We present a new model for LT codes which simplifies the analysis of the error probability of decoding by belief propagation. For any given degree distribution, we provide the first rigorous expression for the limiting bit-error probability as the length o ...
Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q will be available, with perfect, causal output feedback for communication. Is there a coding scheme (possibly with variable transmission time) that can achieve the Burnashev erro ...
We consider communication over a time-invariant discrete memoryless channel (DMC) with noiseless and instantaneous feedback. We assume that the transmitter and the receiver are not aware of the underlying channel, however, they know that it belongs to some ...
Encoding correlated sources at separate encoders has been studied extensively from the perspective of asymptotically long block codes. The associated error exponents are known for the case of lossless source coding. In this paper, we introduce a novel tech ...

Fountain codes have been successfully employed for reliable and efficient transmission of information via erasure channels with unknown erasure rates. This paper introduces the notion of fountain capacity for arbitrary channels, and shows that it is equal ...
Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q is available with perfect (causal) feedback for communication. A recent result (A. Tchamkerten and I.E. Telatar) shows the existence, for certain families of channels (e.g. binar ...
We consider communication through an infinite cascade of identical discrete memoryless channels. We allow the source and destination nodes to use coding schemes of arbitrary complexity, but restrict the intermediate (relay) nodes to process blocks of a fix ...
We consider communication over a time invariant discrete memoryless channel with noiseless and instantaneous feedback. We assume that the communicating parties are not aware of the underlying channel, however they know that it belongs to some specific fami ...
The random coding capacity of the Gaussian arbitrarily varying channel (GAVC) under a maximal probability of error criterion is equal to that of an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with the interference power as additional noise. The determinis ...

We consider a lossy source coding problem where the description of a source is going to be used by two decoders, each having access to information correlated with the source. This side-information is also present at the encoder. We give inner and outer bou ...
