We study the case of a three-user broadcast erasure channel with multiple unicast traffic sessions, where feedback from the users is fed back to the transmitter in the form of positive acknowledgment (ACK)/negative acknowledgment (NACK) messages. The capac ...

Linear receivers are often used to reduce the implementation complexity of multiple-antenna systems. In a traditional linear receiver architecture, the receive antennas are used to separate out the codewords sent by each transmit antenna, which can then be ...

For a given family of spatially coupled codes, we prove that the linear programming (LP) threshold on the binary-symmetric channel (BSC) of the tail-biting graph cover ensemble is the same as the LP threshold on the BSC of the derived spatially coupled ens ...
We prove that channel combining and splitting via Arikan's polarization transformation improves Gallager's reliability function E-0 for binary input channels. In this sense, polarization creates E-0. This observation gives yet another justification as to w ...
We study the extremality of the binary erasure channel and the binary symmetric channel for Gallager's reliability function E-0 of binary input discrete memoryless channels evaluated under the uniform input distribution from the aspect of channel polarizat ...

Binary codes over 2D arrays are very useful in data storage, where each array column represents a storage device or unit that may suffer failure. In this paper, we propose a new framework for probabilistic construction of codes on 2D arrays. Instead of a p ...

Consider a binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channel W. Such a channel has a capacity, call it I (W), and for any R < I (W) and strictly positive constant P-e we know that we can construct a coding scheme that allows transmission at rate R with an e ...
Different typing devices lead to different typing error patterns. In addition, different persons using the same device have different error patterns. Considering this, we propose and evaluate a spelling algorithm specifically designed for a five-key chordi ...
Motivated by the significant performance gains which polar codes experience when they are decoded with successive cancellation list decoders, we study how the scaling exponent changes as a function of the list size L. In particular, we fix the block error ...
Polar codes, invented by Arikan in 2009, are known to achieve the capacity of any binary-input memoryless outputsymmetric channel. Further, both the encoding and the decoding can be accomplished in O(N log(N)) real operations, where N is the blocklength. O ...
