The case for structured random codes in network communication theorems

Michael Christoph Gastpar

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 ...

On Average Throughput Benefits and Alphabet Size in Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

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 ...

Channel coding and modulation based on chaotic systems

Slobodan Kozic

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 ...

Joint source-channel coding with feedback

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 ...

On the Capacity of Large Gaussian Relay Networks

Martin Vetterli, Michael Christoph Gastpar

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 ...

On Average Throughput Benefits and Alphabet Size in Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

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 ...

Transmission of Images over Noisy Channels Using Error-resilient Wavelet Coding and Forward Error Correction

Nikolaos Thomos

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 ...

To code or not to code

Michael Christoph Gastpar

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 ...

Potential of chaos communication over noisy channels - Channel coding using chaotic piecewise linear maps

Martin Hasler, Thomas Schimming

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 ...

To Code, Or Not To Code: On the Optimality of Symbol-by-Symbol Communication

Martin Vetterli, Michael Christoph Gastpar, Bixio Rimoldi

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 ...
