We propose and prove a theorem that allows the calculation of a class of functionals on Poisson point processes that have the form of expected values of sum-products of functions. In proving the theorem, we present a variant of the Campbell-Mecke theorem f ...
Wireless channels are commonly affected by short-term fading and long-term fading (shadowing). The shadowing effects must be taken into account also when mobility is present in the wireless scenario. Using a composite fading model, the total channel capaci ...
The fading AWGN two-user two-hop network is considered where the channel coefficients are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) according to a continuous distribution and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, the ergodic su ...

We consider a fading AWGN 2-user 2-hop network in which the channel coefficients are independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.) drawn from a continuous distribution and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, we characterize the ...
We study a 2-user 2-hop network with 2 relays in which channel coefficients are independently drawn from continuous distributions and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, we characterize the ergodic sum capacity within a constant num ...
Link adaptation techniques are important modern and future wireless communication systems to cope with quality of service fluctuations in fading channels. These techniques require the knowledge of the channel state obtained with a portion of resources devo ...

Multipath mitigation in urban canyons and indoor environments is an open issue for the reception of GNSS signals for high precision applications, as the presence of multipath components can lead to signal fading and ranging errors. New families of navigati ...

Coding and diversity are very effective techniques for improving transmission reliability in a mobile wireless environ- ment. The use of diversity is particularly important for multimedia communications over fading channels. In this work, we study the tran ...

Rate and diversity impose a fundamental trade-off in communications. This tradeoff was investigated for Intersymbol Interference (ISI) channels in [7]. A different point of view was explored in [4] where high-rate codes were designed so that they have a hi ...
Given uncertainty in environment, a conservative approach is to design for the worst case, leading to a game-theoretic situation where the environment is controlled by an adversary. However, in many cases, the uncertainty arises from randomness, not an adv ...
