Abstract

The index coding problem aims to optimise broadcast communication by taking advantage of receiver-side information to improve transmission efficiency. In this letter, we explore the application of Construction πA\pi_A lattices to index coding. We introduce a coding scheme, named \textit{CRT lattice index coding}, using Construction πA\pi_A over Z\mathbb{Z} to address the index coding problem. It is derived an upper bound for side information gain of a CRT lattice index code and conditions for the uniformity of this gain. The efficiency of this approach is shown through theoretical analysis and code design examples.
