In this paper, we introduce novel coding schemes for wireless networks with random transmission delays. These coding schemes obviate the need for synchronicity, reduce the number of transmissions and achieve the optimal rate region in the…

In the presence of multiple senders, one of the simplest decoding strategies that can be employed by a receiver is successive decoding. In a successive decoding strategy, the receiver decodes the messages one at a time using the knowledge…

This paper studies the capacity of single-source single-sink noiseless networks under adversarial or arbitrary errors on no more than z edges. Unlike prior papers, which assume equal capacities on all links, arbitrary link capacities are…

A single source network is said to be memory-free if all of the internal nodes (those except the source and the sinks) do not employ memory but merely send linear combinations of the symbols received at their incoming edges on their…

It is common in the study of secure multicast network coding in the presence of an eavesdropper that has access to $z$ network links, to assume that the source node is the only node that generates random keys. In this setting, the secure…

Randomized network coding (RNC) greatly reduces the complexity of implementing network coding in large-scale, heterogeneous networks. This paper examines two tradeoffs in applying RNC: The first studies how the performance of RNC varies…

We consider a mobile edge computing scenario where users want to perform a linear inference operation $\boldsymbol{W} \boldsymbol{x}$ on local data $\boldsymbol{x}$ for some network-side matrix $\boldsymbol{W}$. The inference is performed…

A rateless code encodes a finite length information word into an infinitely long codeword such that longer prefixes of the codeword can tolerate a larger fraction of errors. A rateless code achieves capacity for a family of channels if, for…

Fountain codes like LT or Raptor codes, also known as rateless erasure codes, allow to encode a message as some number of packets, such that any large enough subset of these packets is sufficient to fully reconstruct the message. It…

For discrete memoryless multiple-access channels, we propose a general definition of variable length codes with a measure of the transmission rates at the receiver side. This gives a receiver perspective on the multiple-access channel…

Due to the short and bursty incoming messages, channel access activities in a wireless random access system are often fractional. The lack of frequent data support consequently makes it difficult for the receiver to estimate and track the…
