We consider a large distributed MIMO system where wireless users with single transmit and receive antenna cooperate in clusters to form distributed transmit and receive antenna arrays. We characterize how the capacity of the distributed MIMO transmission s ...

We study spectral properties of generalized weighted Hilbert matrices. In particular, we establish results on the spectral norm, the determinant, and various relations between the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of such matrices. We also study the asymptotic ...
We consider a wireless network with a large number of source-destination pairs distributed over a line. Under line-of-sight propagation, this network has only one degree of freedom for communication. At high SNR, this one degree of freedom can be readily a ...
In this paper, we show that the sum rules for generalized Hermite polynomials derived by Daboul and Mizrahi (2005 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 38 427-48) and by Graczyk and Nowak (2004 C. R. Acad. Sci., Ser. 1 338 849) can be interpreted and easily recovered usi ...
Hierarchical cooperation has recently been shown to achieve better throughput scaling than classical multihop schemes under certain assumptions on the channel model in static wireless networks. However, the end-to-end delay of this scheme turns out to be s ...

We investigate the role of cooperation in wireless networks subject to a spatial degrees of freedom limitation. To address the worst case scenario, we consider a free-space line-of-sight type environment with no scattering and no fading. We identify three ...
In this paper, we investigate the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the multiple-antenna (MIMO) static half-duplex relay channel. A general expression is derived for the DMT upper bound, which can be achieved by a compress-and-forward protocol at th ...

This study describes the development and validation process of a computational thinking (CT) test for adults. The team designed a set of items and explored a subset of those through two qualitative pilots. Then, in order to provide validity evidence based ...
We provide here some probabilistic interpretations of the generalized binomial distributions proposed by Gazeau et al. ["Generating functions for generalized binomial distributions," J. Math. Phys. 53, 103304 (2012)]. In the second part, we prove the "stro ...
In analyzing the point-to-point wireless channel, insights about two qualitatively different operating regimes --bandwidth- and power-limited-- have proven indispensable in the design of good communication schemes. In this paper, we propose a new scaling l ...
