In this paper, we design a novel two-phase unsourced random access (URA) scheme in massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO). In the first phase, we collect a sequence of information bits to jointly acquire the user channel state…
Consider a linear model $Y=X\beta+z$, where $X=X_{n,p}$ and $z\sim N(0,I_n)$. The vector $\beta$ is unknown but is sparse in the sense that most of its coordinates are $0$. The main interest is to separate its nonzero coordinates from the…
We study the problem of constructing a deterministic polynomial time algorithm that achieves omniscience, in a rate-optimal manner, among a set of users that are interested in a common file but each has only partial knowledge about it as…

We consider the joint estimation of multipath channels obtained with a set of receiving antennas and uniformly probed in the frequency domain. This scenario fits most of the modern outdoor communication protocols for mobile access or…
We present the first semi-streaming algorithms to determine k-connectivity of an undirected graph with k being any constant. The semi-streaming model for graph algorithms was introduced by Muthukrishnan in 2003 and turns out to be useful…
The recovery of structured signals from a few linear measurements is a central point in both compressed sensing (CS) and discrete tomography. In CS the signal structure is described by means of a low complexity model e.g. co-/sparsity. The…
