A polarization phenomenon in a special sense is shown for an arbitrary discrete memoryless channel (DMC) by imposing a quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The same technique is used to derive a polarization theorem for an arbitrary multiple access ...
Building on polar code constructions proposed by
the authors for deterministic broadcast channels, two theorems
are introduced in the present paper for noisy two-user broadcast
channels. The theorems establish polar code constructions for two
important ...
Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized the transmission of data over a communication channel and determined its fundamental limits. He characterized the relation between communication rate and error probability and showed that as long as the communicatio ...
Polar codes provably achieve the capacity of a wide array of channels under successive decoding. However, in terms of some practical aspects, these codes do not perform optimally and need further improvement. In this paper, we consider two such aspects: un ...
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 codes are constructed for arbitrary channels by imposing an arbitrary quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The block error probability under successive cancellation decoding decays exponentially with the square root of the block length. It is ...
We present a modified compute-and-forward scheme which utilizes Channel State Information at the Transmitters (CSIT) in a natural way. The modified scheme allows different users to have different coding rates, and use CSIT to achieve larger rate region. Th ...
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 ...
In this paper, a VLSI implementation of a complete MIMO channel equalization ASIC based on lattice reduction-aided linear detection is presented. The architecture performs preprocessing steps at channel rate and low-complexity linear data detection at symb ...
In this paper we show that mismatched polar codes over symmetric B-DMCs symmetrized under the same permutation can achieve rates of at least I (W, V) bits whenever I (W, V) > 0, where W denotes the communication channel, V the mismatched channel used in th ...
