We consider the decoding problem or the problem of finding low weight codewords for rank metric codes. We show how additional information about the codeword we want to find under the form of certain linear combinations of the entries of the…

This paper investigates the fundamental performance limits of the two-user interference channel in the presence of an external eavesdropper. In this setting, we construct an inner bound, to the secrecy capacity region, based on the idea of…

Generalized Concatenated codes are a code construction consisting of a number of outer codes whose code symbols are protected by an inner code. As outer codes, we assume the most frequently used Reed-Solomon codes; as inner code, we assume…

This work studies gradient coding (GC) in the context of distributed training problems with unreliable communication. We propose cooperative GC (CoGC), a novel gradient-sharing-based GC framework that leverages cooperative communication…

Recently, Martinez-Penas and Kschischang (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 2019) showed that lifted linearized Reed-Solomon codes are suitable codes for error control in multishot network coding. We show how to construct and decode lifted…

This letter presents a cryptanalysis of the modified McEliece cryptosystem recently proposed by Moufek, Guenda and Gulliver [24]. The system is based on the juxtaposition of quasi-cyclic LDPC and quasi-cyclic MDPC codes. The idea of our…

Algebraic geometry codes or Goppa codes are defined with places of degree one. In constructing generalised algebraic geometry codes places of higher degree are used. In this paper we present 41 new codes over GF(16) which improve on the…

The McEliece cryptosystem is a public-key cryptosystem based on coding theory that has successfully resisted cryptanalysis for thirty years. The original version, based on Goppa codes, is able to guarantee a high level of security, and is…

This paper is concerned with list decoding of $2$-interleaved binary alternant codes. The principle of the proposed algorithm is based on a combination of a list decoding algorithm for (interleaved) Reed-Solomon codes and an algorithm for…

In this work, we propose a decoding method of Golay codes from the perspective of Polarization Adjusted Convolutional (PAC) codes. By invoking Forney's cubing construction of Golay codes and their generators $G^*(8,7)/(8,4)$, we found…

The inherent uncertainty of communication channels implies that any coding scheme has a non-zero probability of failing to correct errors, making retransmission mechanisms essential. To ensure message reliability and integrity, a dual-layer…

We propose to use real-valued errors instead of classical bit flipping intentional errors in the McEliece cryptosystem based on moderate-density parity-check (MDPC) codes. This allows to exploit the error correcting capability of these…

We consider the full-duplex two-way relay channel with direct link between two users and propose two coding schemes: a partial decode-forward scheme, and a combined decode-forward and compute-forward scheme. Both schemes use rate-splitting…

In fact, the broadcast nature of every transmitter makes it possible for other transceivers in the channel to overhear the broadcasted signal. The proposed idea in cooperative communication is to use these intermediate transceivers as relay…

Goppa, in the 1970s, discovered the relation between algebraic geometry and codes, which led to the family of Goppa codes. As one of the most interesting subclasses of linear codes, the family of Goppa codes is often chosen as a key in the…
