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} ...
The main goal in network information theory is to identify fundamental limits of communication over networks, and design solutions which perform close to such limits. After several decades of effort, many important problems still do not have a characteriza ...
In point-to-point source-channel communication with a fidelity criterion and a transmission cost constraint, the region of achievable cost and fidelity pairs is completely characterized by Shannon's separation theorem. However, this is in general only true ...
In this paper, we study a Gaussian relay-interference network, in which relay (helper) nodes are to facilitate competing information flows between different source-destination pairs. We focus on two-stage relay-interference networks where there are weak cr ...

In this paper, we consider an impulse-based ultrawideband (UWB) receiver and assess the performance of different multiple access and modulation schemes, including time-hopping pulse position modulation (TH-PPM), time-hopping binary phase shift keying (TH-B ...
The modulation characteristics of wafer-fused long-wavelength vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) for multichannel microwave-band analog signal transmission were investigated within a large-signal behavioral model based on a commercial microwa ...
A coding scheme for the two-receivers Gaussian broadcast channel (BC) with feedback is proposed. For some asymmetric settings it achieves new rate pairs. Moreover, it achieves prelog 2 when the noises at the two receivers are fully positively correlated an ...
Polar coding is a recently invented technique for communication over binary-input memoryless channels. This technique allows one to transmit data at rates close to the symmetric-capacity of such channels with arbitrarily high reliability, using low-complex ...
Recently, it has been shown that a quantize-map-and-forward scheme approximately achieves (within a constant number of bits) the Gaussian relay network capacity for arbitrary topologies [1]. This was established using Gaussian codebooks for transmission an ...

In this paper, we obtain a family of lower bounds for the sum capacity of code-division multiple-access (CDMA) channels assuming binary inputs and binary signature codes in the presence of additive noise with an arbitrary distribution. The envelope of this ...
