In this thesis, a new class of codes on graphs based on chaotic dynamical systems are proposed. In particular, trellis coded modulation and iteratively decodable codes on graphs are studied. The codes are designed by controlling symbolic dynamics of chaoti ...
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 ...
We examine the throughput benefits that network coding offers with respect to the average through- put achievable by routing, where the average throughput refers to the average of the rates that the indi- vidual receivers experience. We relate these benefi ...
The capacity of a particular large Gaussian relay network is determined in the limit as the number of relays tends to infinity. Upper bounds are derived from cut-set arguments, and lower bounds follow from an argument involving uncoded transmission. It is ...
A novel embedded wavelet coding scheme is proposed for the transmission of images over unreliable channels. The proposed scheme is based on the partitioning of information into a number of layers which can be decoded independently provided that some import ...

It is well known and surprising that the uncoded transmission of an independent and identically distributed Gaussian source across an additive white Gaussian noise channel is optimal: No amount of sophistication in the coding strategy can ever perform bett ...
e analyze a special class of configurations with h sources and N receivers to demonstrate the throughput benefits of network coding and deterministic code design. We show that the throughput benefits network coding offers can increase proportionally to \sq ...
In the Shannon-theoretic analysis of joint source-channel coding problems, achievability is usually established via a two-stage approach: The sources are compressed into bits' and these bits are reliably communicated across the noisy channels. Random codin ...

The paper gives an information theoretic analysis of the potential of chaos in digital communication schemes, underlining that there is no fundamental principle that speaks against the use of chaotic systems in digital communications. The channel model con ...
When is uncoded transmission optimal? This paper derives easy-to-check necessary and sufficient conditions that do not require finding the rate-distortion and the capacity-cost functions. We consider the symbol-by-symbol communication of discrete-time memo ...
