Communications is about conveying information from one point to another subject to certain performance constraints. The information is assumed to be generated by a source and may, for example, represent a voice waveform, the reading of a thermal sensor, or ...
Coding strategies that exploit node cooperation are developed for relay networks. Two basic schemes are studied: the relays decode-and-forward the source message to the destination, or they compress-and-forward their channel outputs to the destination. The ...

This work is dedicated to developing algebraic methods for channel coding. Its goal is to show that in different contexts, namely single-antenna Rayleigh fading channels, coherent and non-coherent MIMO channels, algebraic techniques can provide useful tool ...
This paper presents an unequal error protection scheme for atomic image bitstreams. An atomic stream is the encoded version of a digital image, which is represented as a sum of bi-dimensional functions, as typically generated by Matching Pursuit encoders. ...
We consider the impact of multi-user interference on a bit-interleaved coded-modulation system with M-ary PPM (BIC M-ary PPM) in an impulse-radio ultra-wideband physical layer. In a realistic scenario such as an ad hoc network, the interference is inherent ...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a widely recognized modulation scheme for high data rate communications. However, the implementation of OFDM-based systems suffers from in-phase and quadrature-phase (IQ) imbalances in the front-end anal ...
The FPGA implementation of Viterbi decoders for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems with bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) and perantenna coding is considered. The paper describes how the recursive add-compare-select ...

We analyze a generalization of a recent algorithm of Bleichenbacher et al.~for decoding interleaved codes on the Q-ary symmetric channel for large Q. We will show that for any m and any ϵ the new algorithms can decode up to a fraction of at ...
For a class of sensor networks, the task is to monitor an underlying physical phenomenon over space and time through an imperfect observation process. The sensors can communicate back to a central data collector over a noisy channel. The key pa- rameters i ...
