We consider data transmission across discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) using variable-length codes with feedback. We consider the family of such codes whose rates are $\rho_N$ below the channel capacity $C$, where $\rho_N$ is a positive…

In this paper, we first consider a channel that is contaminated by two independent Gaussian noises $S ~ N(0,Q)$ and $Z_0 ~ N(0,N_0)$. The capacity of this channel is computed when independent noisy versions of $S$ are known to the…

DNA storage has emerged as a promising solution for large-scale and long-term data preservation. Among various error types, insertions are the most frequent errors occurring in DNA sequences, where the inserted symbol is often identical or…

In this paper, we consider a recent channel model of a nanopore sequencer proposed by McBain, Viterbo, and Saunderson (2024), termed the noisy nanopore channel (NNC). In essence, an NNC is a duplication channel with structured, Markov…

Motivated by communication systems with constrained complexity, we consider the problem of input symbol selection for discrete memoryless channels (DMCs). Given a DMC, the goal is to find a subset of its input alphabet, so that the optimal…

In practical communication systems, knowledge of channel models is often absent, and consequently, transceivers need be designed based on empirical data. In this work, we study data-driven approaches to reliably choosing decoding metrics…

We propose an iterative method for approximately computing the capacity of discrete memoryless channels, possibly under additional constraints on the input distribution. Based on duality of convex programming, we derive explicit upper and…

To make DNA a suitable medium for archival data storage, it is essential to consider the decay process of the strands observed in DNA storage systems. This paper studies the decay process as a probabilistic noisy torn paper channel (TPC),…

In Diffusive Molecular Communication (DMC), information is transmitted by diffusing molecules. Synaptic signaling is a natural implementation of this paradigm. It is responsible for relaying information from one neuron to another, but also…

Computing channel capacity is in general intractable because it is given by the limit of a sequence of optimization problems whose dimensionality grows to infinity. As a result, constant-sized characterizations of feedback or non-feedback…
