Polarization and Spatial Coupling

Seyed Hamed Hassani

During the last two decades we have witnessed considerable activity in building bridges between the fields of information theory/communications, computer science, and statistical physics. This is due to the realization that many fundamental concepts and no ...

Polar Coding Theorems for Discrete Systems

Eren Sasoglu

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 ...

Strategies for Delay-Limited Source-Channel Coding

Marius Kleiner

In point-to-point source-channel communication with a fidelity criterion and a transmission cost constraint, the region of achievable cost and fidelity pairs is completely characterized by Shannon's separation theorem. However, this is in general only true ...

Zero-Rate Feedback Can Achieve the Empirical Capacity

Michael Christoph Gastpar

The utility of limited feedback for coding over an individual sequence of discrete memoryless channels is investigated. This study complements recent results showing how limited or noisy feedback can boost the reliability of communication. A strategy with ...

Linear Universal Decoder for Compound Discrete Memoryless Channels

Rethnakaran Pulikkoonattu

Shannon in his seminal work \cite{paper:shannon} formalized the framework on the problem of digital communication of information and storage. He quantified the fundamental limits of compression and transmission rates. The quantity \textit{channel capacity} ...

Polar codes for channel and source coding

Satish Babu Korada

The two central topics of information theory are the compression and the transmission of data. Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized both these problems and determined their fundamental limits. Since then the main goal of coding theory has been to find ...

Statistical physics methods for sparse graph codes

Shrinivas Kudekar

This thesis deals with the asymptotic analysis of coding systems based on sparse graph codes. The goal of this work is to analyze the decoder performance when transmitting over a general binary-input memoryless symmetric-output (BMS) channel. We consider t ...

Source and channel coding using Fountain codes

Bertrand Ndzana Ndzana

The invention of Fountain codes is a major advance in the field of error correcting codes. The goal of this work is to study and develop algorithms for source and channel coding using a family of Fountain codes known as Raptor codes. From an asymptotic poi ...

Performance of Polar Codes for Channel and Source Coding

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Nadine Hussami

Polar codes, introduced recently by Arikan, are the first family of codes known to achieve capacity of symmetric channels using a low complexity successive cancellation decoder. Although these codes, combined with successive cancellation, are optimal in th ...

Polar Codes are Optimal for Lossy Source Coding

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada

We consider lossy source compression of a binary symmetric source with Hamming distortion function. We show that polar codes combined with a low-complexity successive cancellation encoding algorithm achieve the rate-distortion bound. The complexity of both ...
