Polar Codes For Broadcast Channels

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Emmanuel Abbé, Naveen Goela

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 ...

Iterative Coding for Network Coding

Rüdiger Urbanke, Andrea Montanari

We consider communication over a noisy network under randomized linear network coding. Possible error mechanisms include node-or link-failures, Byzantine behavior of nodes, or an overestimate of the network min-cut. Building on the work of Kotter and Kschi ...

Polar Codes: Finite Length Implementation, Error Correlations and Multilevel Modulation

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 ...

Analysis of the Second Moment of the LT Decoder

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Ghid Maatouk

In this paper, the second moment of the ripple size during the Luby transform (LT) decoding process is analyzed. Combined with a result by Karp et al. (2004) stating that the expectation of the ripple size is of the order of k, our study gives bounds on th ...

Degree Distribution Optimization in Raptor Network Coding

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos

We consider a multi-source delivery system, where Raptor coding at sources and linear network coding in overlay nodes work in concert for efficient data delivery in networks with diversity. Such a combination permits to increase throughput and loss resilie ...

Block copolymers and uses thereof

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Conlin O'Neil

An encoding/decoding apparatus and method using a low-density parity-check code (LDPC code) is disclosed. Basic column group information, serving as a set of information regarding positions of rows with weight 1, is extracted from a reference column in eac ...

Boosting Gossip for Live Streaming

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Maxime Monod, Davide Frey

Gossip protocols are considered very effective to disseminate information in a large scale dynamic distributed system. Their inherent simplicity makes them easy to implement and deploy. However, whereas their probabilistic guarantees are often enough to di ...

Network coding of rateless video in streaming overlays

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos

We investigate the problem of collaborative video streaming in overlay networks. We exploit path and source diversity, as well as basic processing capabilities of network nodes in order to increase the overall throughput and improve the video quality at th ...

Media coding for streaming in networks with source and path diversity

Pascal Frossard, Nikolaos Thomos

Novel network architectures such as overlay networks offer significant diversity that can compensate for the lack of strict quality of service in today's communication infrastructures. In order to take advantage of this diversity for delay-sensitive media ...

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} ...
