Imperfect secrecy in communication systems is investigated. Instead of using equivocation as a measure of secrecy, the distortion that an eavesdropper incurs in producing an estimate of the source sequence is examined. The communication…
For 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 feedback…
We consider a setting of non-cooperative communication where a receiver wants to recover randomly generated sequences of symbols that are observed by a strategic sender. The sender aims to maximize an average utility that may not align with…
A central question in information theory is to determine the maximum success probability that can be achieved in sending a fixed number of messages over a noisy channel. This was first studied in the pioneering work of Shannon who…
In this paper, the authors report a way to use concepts from statistical learning to gain an advantage in terms of error exponents while communicating over a discrete memoryless channel. The study utilizes the simulation capability of the…
A point-to-point wireless communication system in which the transmitter is equipped with an energy harvesting device and a rechargeable battery, is studied. Both the energy and the data arrivals at the transmitter are modeled as Markov…
We formulate a model for intermittent communication that can capture bursty transmissions or a sporadically available channel, where in either case the receiver does not know a priori when the transmissions will occur. Focusing on the…
We consider a Bayesian persuasion problem where the persuader and the decision maker communicate through an imperfect channel that has a fixed and limited number of messages and is subject to exogenous noise. We provide an upper bound on…
As a brain inspired wireless communication scheme, cognitive radio is a novel approach to promote the efficient use of the scarce radio spectrum by allowing some users called cognitive users to access the under-utilized spectrum licensed…
We revisit the problems of state masking and state amplification through the lens of empirical coordination. Specifically, we characterize the rate-equivocation-coordination trade-offs regions of a state-dependent channel in which the…
This paper investigates the optimization of transmitting the encoder outputs, termed semantic features (SFs), in semantic communication (SC). We begin by modeling the entire communication process from the encoder output to the decoder…
This paper studies communication scenarios where the transmitter and the receiver have different objectives due to privacy concerns, in the context of a variation of the strategic information transfer (SIT) model of Sobel and Crawford. We…
We investigate the capacity of a multiple access channel with cooperating encoders where partial state information is known to each encoder and full state information is known to the decoder. The cooperation between the encoders has a…
A novel information theoretic approach is proposed to solve the secret sharing problem, in which a dealer distributes one or multiple secrets among a set of participants that for each secret only qualified sets of users can recover it by…
In quantum Shannon theory, the way information is encoded and decoded takes advantage of the laws of quantum mechanics, while the way communication channels are interlinked is assumed to be classical. In this Letter we relax the assumption…
Semantic communication is an increasingly popular framework for wireless image transmission due to its high communication efficiency. With the aid of the joint-source-and-channel (JSC) encoder implemented by neural network, semantic…
We consider the problem of encoding a deterministic source sequence (a.k.a.\ individual sequence) for the degraded wiretap channel by means of an encoder and decoder that can both be implemented as finite--state machines. Our first main…
We consider a communication system where two transmitters wish to exchange information through a half-duplex relay in the middle. The channels between the transmitters and the relay have asymmetric channel gains. More specifically, the…
We study the problem of simulating a two-user multiple-access channel (MAC) over a multiple access network of noiseless links. Two encoders observe independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) copies of a source random variable each,…
