The information bottleneck channel (or the oblivious relay channel) concerns a channel coding setting where the decoder does not directly observe the channel output. Rather, the channel output is relayed to the decoder by an oblivious relay…

In this work, the problem of transmitting an i.i.d Gaussian source over an i.i.d Gaussian wiretap channel with an i.i.d Gaussian side information is considered. The intended receiver is assumed to have a certain minimum SNR and the…

This letter investigates a new class of index coding problems. One sender broadcasts packets to multiple users, each desiring a subset, by exploiting prior knowledge of linear combinations of packets. We refer to this class of problems as…

We study the joint source channel coding problem of transmitting an analog source over a Gaussian channel in two cases - (i) the presence of interference known only to the transmitter and (ii) in the presence of side information known only…

We study finite-length bounds for source coding with side information for Markov sources and channel coding for channels with conditional Markovian additive noise. For this purpose, we propose two criteria for finite-length bounds. One is…

Locally decodable channel codes form a special class of error-correcting codes with the property that the decoder is able to reconstruct any bit of the input message from querying only a few bits of a noisy codeword. It is well known that…

We present nonasymptotic bounds on the maximum coding rate achievable over a Rician block-fading channel for a fixed packet size and a fixed packet error probability. Our bounds, which apply to the scenario where no a priori channel state…

The problem of secure lossy source-channel wiretapping with arbitrarily correlated side informations at both receivers is investigated. This scenario consists of an encoder (referred to as Alice) that wishes to compress a source and send it…

Improved bounds on the blocklength required to communicate over binary-input channels using polar codes, below some given error probability, are derived. For that purpose, an improved bound on the number of non-polarizing channels is…
