We study the role of coded side information in single-server Private Information Retrieval (PIR). An instance of the single-server PIR problem includes a server that stores a database of $K$ independently and uniformly distributed messages,…

We consider the problem of transmission of several distributed sources over a multiple access channel (MAC) with side information at the sources and the decoder. Source-channel separation does not hold for this channel. Sufficient…

We investigate the problem of strong coordination over a multiple-access channel (MAC) with cribbing encoders. In this configuration, two encoders observe independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) samples of a source random variable…

This article characterizes new boundary points on the capacity region of certain classes of more capable broadcast channels (BC) with uni-directional cooperation from the stronger to the weaker receiver. The new boundary points are achieved…

We study the zero-error source coding problem in which an encoder with Side Information (SI) $g(Y)$ transmits source symbols $X$ to a decoder. The decoder has SI $Y$ and wants to recover $f(X,Y)$ where $f,g$ are deterministic. We exhibit a…

In random-access networks, such as the IEEE 802.11 network, different users may transmit their packets simultaneously, resulting in packet collisions. Traditionally, the collided packets are simply discarded. To improve performance,…

The problem of joint source-channel coding in transmitting independent sources over interference channels with correlated receiver side information is studied. When each receiver has side information correlated with its own desired source,…

We consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) where a single user with private side information aims to retrieve multiple files from a library stored (uncoded) at a number of servers. We assume the side information at the…

For the information transmission a binary symmetric channel is used. There is also another noisy binary symmetric channel (feedback channel), and the transmitter observes without delay all the outputs of the forward channel via that…

In this paper we consider noisy index coding problem over AWGN channel. We give an algorithm to map the index coded bits to appropriate sized PSK symbols such that for the given index code, in general, the receiver with large amount of side…

In this paper, we generalize the well-known index coding problem to exploit the structure in the source-data to improve system throughput. In many applications, the data to be transmitted may lie (or can be well approximated) in a…

In coding theory, an error-correcting code can be encoded either systematically or non-systematically. In a systematic encode, the input data is embedded in the encoded output. Conversely, in a non-systematic code, the output does not…
