Noisy index coding problems over AWGN channel are considered. For a given index coding problem and a chosen scalar linear index code of length $N$, we propose to transmit the $N$ index coded bits as a single signal from a $2^N$- PSK…

While the channel capacity reflects a theoretical upper bound on the achievable information transmission rate in the limit of infinitely many bits, it does not characterise the information transfer of a given encoding routine with finitely…
The transmission of digital data is one of the principal tasks in modern wireless communication. Classically, the communication channel consists of one transmitter and one receiver; however, due to the constantly increasing demand in higher…
