Polar codes: Characterization of exponent, bounds, and constructions

Rüdiger Urbanke, Satish Babu Korada, Eren Sasoglu

Polar codes were recently introduced by Arikan. They achieve the symmetric capacity of arbitrary binary-input discrete memoryless channels under a low complexity successive cancellation decoding strategy. The original polar code construction is closely rel ...

On communication over discrete memoryless channels with noiseless feedback

Peter Allan Berlin

The addition of a feedback link to a discrete memoryless channel does not increase its capacity, but it does bring with it other benefits. One of these benefits is an increase to the best achievable error exponent. In the first part of this thesis we revis ...

Concentration of Magnetization for Linear Block Codes

Nicolas Macris, Satish Babu Korada, Shrinivas Kudekar

We consider communication over the binary erasure and the binary additive white gaussian noise channels using fixed linear block codes and also appropriate ensembles of such codes. We show concentration of the magnetization over the channel realizations an ...

Non-binary LDPC codes and EXIT like functions

In the first part of this thesis we are interested in the asymptotic performance analysis of Non-Binary Low-Density Parity-Check (NBLDPC) codes over the Binary Erasure Channel (BEC) decoded via the suboptimal Belief Propagation (BP) decoder as well as the ...

A family of non-binary TLDPC codes: density evolution, convergence and thresholds

We generalize the results about how to compute iterative decoding thresholds over the binary erasure channel of non-binary LDPC code ensembles of [16] to non-binary TLDPC codes [2], [3]. We show in this case how density evolution can be performed in order ...

On the use of training sequences for channel estimation

Emre Telatar, Aslan Tchamkerten

Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q will be available, with perfect, causal output feedback for communication. We study a scenario where communication is carried by first testing the channel by means of a training ...

Finite-Length Scaling For Gallager A

Rüdiger Urbanke, Jérémie Ezri

We consider LDPC codes, transmission over the binary symmetric channel (BSC), and decoding using Gallager's algorithm A. For those ensembles whose threshold is determined by the behavior of the algorithm at the beginning of the decoding process we derive a ...

Fountain Codes for the Slepian-Wolf Problem

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Bertrand Ndzana Ndzana

In this paper, we describe one solution to the two-user Slepian-Wolf problem in a certain part of the achievable region using fountain codes. Symmetric case of memoryless compression of two correlated sources is considered and modeled by a BSC channel. The ...

On the universality of Burnashev's error exponent

Emre Telatar, Aslan Tchamkerten

We consider communication over a time invariant discrete memoryless channel with noiseless and instantaneous feedback. We assume that the communicating parties are not aware of the underlying channel, however they know that it belongs to some specific fami ...

Feedback communication over unknown channels

Aslan Tchamkerten

Suppose Q is a family of discrete memoryless channels. An unknown member of Q will be available, with perfect, causal output feedback for communication. Is there a coding scheme (possibly with variable transmission time) that can achieve the Burnashev erro ...
