This document presents an overview of the investigations performed within the project NEWAC on the application of active flow control by aspiration to axial compressors. It is based on the measurements performed on different annular cascades, tested in the ...
The invention of Fountain codes is a major advance in the field of error correcting codes. The goal of this work is to study and develop algorithms for source and channel coding using a family of Fountain codes known as Raptor codes. From an asymptotic poi ...
We provide upper and lower bounds on the escape rate of the Bhattacharyya process corresponding to polar codes where transmission takes place over the the binary erasure channel. More precisely, we bound the exponent of the number of sub-channels whose Bha ...
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} ...
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 ...
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 ...
In this paper, we will investigate the performance of Raptor codes on arbitrary binary input memoryless symmetric channels (BIMSCs). In doing so, we generalize some of the results that were proved before for the erasure channel. We will generalize the stab ...
In this paper, two fixed per-information symbol complexity lossless source coding algorithms are modified for estimation and incremental LT decoding over piecewise stationary memoryless channels (PSMC's) with a bounded number of abrupt changes in channel s ...
Fountain codes are currently employed for reliable and efficient transmission of information via erasure channels with unknown erasure rates. This correspondence introduces the notion of fountain capacity for arbitrary channels. In contrast to the conventi ...
Fountain codes have been successfully employed for reliable and efficient transmission of information via erasure channels with unknown erasure rates. This paper introduces the notion of fountain capacity for arbitrary channels, and shows that it is equal ...
