Blind detection of polar codes

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Pascal Giard

Polar codes were recently chosen to protect the control channel information in the next-generation mobile communication standard (5G) defined by the 3GPP. As a result, receivers will have to implement blind detection of polar coded frames in order to keep ...

TiD-Introducing and Benchmarking an Event-Delivery System for Brain-Computer Interfaces

Robert Leeb, Michele Tavella

In this paper, we present and analyze an event distribution system for brain-computer interfaces. Events are commonly used to mark and describe incidents during an experiment and are therefore critical for later data analysis or immediate real-time process ...

Coding for Communications and Secrecy

Mani Bastaniparizi

Shannon, in his landmark 1948 paper, developed a framework for characterizing the fundamental limits of information transmission. Among other results, he showed that reliable communication over a channel is possible at any rate below its capacity. In 2008, ...

Updated braking forces for the assessment of road bridges

João Miguel De Oliveira Durães Alves Martins

Safety assessments of road bridges to braking events combine the braking force, acting along the longitudinal axis of the deck, with a vertical load that accounts for the vertical component of the traffic action. In modern design standards the vertical loa ...

Entrainment,motion, and deposition of coarse particles transported by water over a sloping mobile bed

Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman

In gravel bed rivers, bed load transport exhibits considerable variability in time and space. Recently, stochastic bed load transport theories have been developed to address the mechanisms and effects of bed load transport fluctuations. Stochastic models i ...

Squall

Aleksandar Vitorovic

Squall is a scalable online query engine that runs complex analytics in a cluster using skew-resilient, adaptive operators. Online processing implies that results are incrementally built as the input arrives, and it is ubiquitous for many applications such ...

Re-proving Channel Polarization Theorems

Mine Alsan

The general subject considered in this thesis is a recently discovered coding technique, polar coding, which is used to construct a class of error correction codes with unique properties. In his ground-breaking work, Arikan proved that this class of codes, ...

LLR-Based Successive Cancellation List Decoding of Polar Codes

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming

We show that successive cancellation list decoding can be formulated exclusively using log-likelihood ratios. In addition to numerical stability, the log-likelihood ratio based formulation has useful properties that simplify the sorting step involved in su ...

Analysis and Design of Large-scale Online Classes

Martin Vetterli, Paolo Prandoni, Tao-Chun Lee

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have become an emergent paradigm of large-scale knowledge distribution, have generated wide interest in the higher education community and are anticipated by many to bring impact to the future of higher education. In thi ...

Rate-Dependent Analysis of the Asymptotic Behavior of Channel Polarization

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the polarization process in the large block-length regime when transmission takes place over a binary-input memoryless symmetric channel W. In particular, we study the asymptotics of the cumulative distribution, P(Z(n ...
