In this work, we consider an acoustic beamforming application where two speakers are simultaneously active. We construct one subband-domain beamformer in \emph{generalized sidelobe canceller} (GSC) configuration for each source. In contrast to normal pract ...
This paper provides an inner bound to the rate-distortion region of a source coding setup in which two encoders are allowed some collaboration to describe a pair of discrete memoryless sources. We further require some robustness in case one of the encoders ...

In this thesis, a new class of codes on graphs based on chaotic dynamical systems are proposed. In particular, trellis coded modulation and iteratively decodable codes on graphs are studied. The codes are designed by controlling symbolic dynamics of chaoti ...
We derive the average weight distribution function and its asymptotic growth rate for low-density parity-check (LDPC) code ensembles. We show that the growth rate of the minimum distance of LDPC codes depends only on the degree distribution pair. It turns ...
We outline a procedure for using pseudorandom generators to construct binary codes with good properties, assuming the existence of sufficiently hard functions. Specifically, we give a polynomial time algorithm, which for every integers n and k, constru ...
This thesis addresses the problem of information transmission over noisy channels. In 1993, Berrou, Glavieux and Thitimajshima discovered Turbo-codes. These codes made it possible to achieve a very good performance at low decoding complexity. In hindsight, ...
In this paper, we will investigate the performance of Raptor codes on arbitrary binary input memoryless symmetric channels (BIMSCs). In doing so, we generalize some of the results that were proved before for the erasure channel. We will generalize the stab ...
Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q will be available, with perfect, causal output feedback for communication. We study a scenario where communication is carried by first testing the channel by means of a training ...
In this paper we describe some practical aspects of the design process of good Raptor codes for finite block lengths over arbitrary binary input symmetric channels. In particular we introduce a simple model for the finite-length convergence behavior of the ...
In this paper a class of discretized piecewise linear chaotic maps of a very high dimensions are used for communication over a noisy channel. An information payload that is sent over a channel is controlled in the transmitter and is related to the symbolic ...
