We focus on a system in which a set of two-state Markov sources report status update to a common receiver over a shared wireless channel. Inspired by practical IoT networks, we consider three variations of ALOHA as medium access protocol:…
In this paper, we study a system in which a sensor forwards status updates to a receiver through an error-prone channel, while the receiver sends the transmission results back to the sensor via a reliable channel. Both channels are subject…
In our work, we study the age of information ($\AoI$) in a multi-source system where $K$ sources transmit updates of their time-varying processes via a common-aggregator node to a destination node through a channel with packet delivery…

We consider a real-time streaming source coding system in which an encoder observes a sequence of randomly arriving symbols from an i.i.d. source, and feeds binary codewords to a FIFO buffer that outputs one bit per time unit to a decoder.…
Sensor sources submit updates to a monitor through an unslotted, uncoordinated, unreliable multiple access collision channel. The channel is unreliable; a collision-free transmission is received successfully at the monitor with some…
