We consider discrete memoryless channels with input alphabet size $n$ and output alphabet size $m$, where $m=$ceil$(\gamma n)$ for some constant $\gamma>0$. The channel transition matrix consists of entries that, before being normalised,…
The capacity of a channel with an energy-harvesting (EH) encoder and a finite battery remains an open problem, even in the noiseless case. A key instance of this scenario is the binary EH channel (BEHC), where the encoder has a unit-sized…
A single-letter characterization is provided for the capacity region of finite-state multiple-access channels, when the channel state process is an independent and identically distributed sequence, the transmitters have access to partial…
A two-user symmetric Gaussian Interference Channel (IC) is considered in which a noiseless unidirectional link connects one encoder to the other. Having a constant capacity, the additional link provides partial cooperation between the…
We study natural examples of binary channels with synchronization errors. These include the duplication channel, which independently outputs a given bit once or twice, and geometric channels that repeat a given bit according to a geometric…
Let $W$ be a binary-input memoryless symmetric (BMS) channel with Shannon capacity $I(W)$ and fix any $\alpha > 0$. We construct, for any sufficiently small $\delta > 0$, binary linear codes of block length $O(1/\delta^{2+\alpha})$ and rate…
We study variable-length feedback (VLF) codes over binary-input memoryless symmetric (BMS) channels using posterior matching with small-enough-difference (SED) partitioning. Prior analyses of SED-based schemes rely on bounded log-likelihood…

We consider the problem of determining the trade-off between the rate and the block-length of polar codes for a given block error probability when we use the successive cancellation decoder. We take the sum of the Bhattacharyya parameters…

We consider the discrete memoryless degraded broadcast channels. We prove that the error probability of decoding tends to one exponentially for rates outside the capacity region and derive an explicit lower bound of this exponent function.…
Existing fixed-length feedback communication schemes are either specialized to particular channels (Schalkwijk--Kailath, Horstein), or apply to general channels but either have high coding complexity (block feedback schemes) or are…
Channel capacity plays a crucial role in the development of modern communication systems as it represents the maximum rate at which information can be reliably transmitted over a communication channel. Nevertheless, for the majority of…
The capacity of a deterministic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel under the peak and average power constraints is investigated. For the identity channel matrix, the approach of Shamai et al. is generalized to the higher…
We develop a systematic approach, based on convex programming and real analysis, for obtaining upper bounds on the capacity of the binary deletion channel and, more generally, channels with i.i.d. insertions and deletions. Other than the…
The channel capacity of a nonlinear, dispersive fiber-optic link is revisited. To this end, the popular Gaussian noise (GN) model is extended with a parameter to account for the finite memory of realistic fiber channels. This finite-memory…
This paper investigates the zero-error capacity of channels with memory. Motivated by the nuanced requirements of semantic communication that incorporate memory, we advance the classical enlightened dictator channel by introducing a new…
A coding scheme for transmission of a bit maps a given bit to a sequence of channel inputs (called the codeword associated to the transmitted bit). In this paper, we study the problem of designing the best code for a discrete Poisson…
Zero-error capacity plays an important role in a whole range of operational tasks, in addition to the fact that it is necessary for practical applications. Due to the importance of zero-error capacity, it is necessary to investigate its…
This paper determines the range of feasible values of standard error exponents for binary-input memoryless symmetric channels of fixed capacity $C$ and shows that extremes are attained by the binary symmetric and the binary erasure channel.…
