We study the performance of generalized polar (GP) codes when they are used for coding schemes involving erasure. GP codes are a family of codes which contains, among others, the standard polar codes of Arikan and Reed-Muller codes. We derive a closed form ...
We consider the dynamics of message passing for spatially coupled codes and, in particular, the set of density evolution equations that tracks the profile of decoding errors along the spatial direction of coupling. It is known that, for suitable boundary c ...
We are living in the era of "Big Data", an era characterized by a voluminous amount of available data. Such amount is mainly due to the continuing advances in the computational capabilities for capturing, storing, transmitting and processing data. However, ...
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, ...
In this paper, we show that the Hadamard matrix acts as an extractor over the reals of the Renyi Information Dimension (RID), in an analogous way to how it acts as an extractor of the discrete entropy over finite fields. More precisely, we prove that the R ...
The aim of this paper is to show that spatial coupling can be viewed not only as a means to build better graphical models, but also as a tool to better understand uncoupled models. The starting point is the observation that some asymptotic properties of gr ...

For a given family of spatially coupled codes, we prove that the linear programming (LP) threshold on the binary-symmetric channel (BSC) of the tail-biting graph cover ensemble is the same as the LP threshold on the BSC of the derived spatially coupled ens ...
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, ...
We present a digital baseband ASIC for 60 GHz single-carrier (SC) transmission that is optimized for communication scenarios in which most of the energy is concentrated in the first few channel taps. Such scenarios occur for example in office environments ...
