In this paper, we consider a distributed reception scenario where a transmitter broadcasts a signal to multiple geographically separated receive nodes over fading channels, and each node forwards a few bits representing a processed version…
The performance gain by allowing half-duplex source cooperation is studied for Gaussian interference channels. The source cooperation is {\em in-band}, meaning that each source can listen to the other source's transmission, but there is no…

For reliable transmission across a noisy communication channel, classical results from information theory show that it is asymptotically optimal to separate out the source and channel coding processes. However, this decomposition can fall…

Distributed source coding (DSC) is the task of encoding an input in the absence of correlated side information that is only available to the decoder. Remarkably, Slepian and Wolf showed in 1973 that an encoder without access to the side…
