It is well-known that the dimension of optimal anticodes in the rank-metric is divisible by the maximum m between the number of rows and columns of the matrices. Moreover, for a fixed k divisible by m, optimal rank-metric anticodes are the…
In distributed communication, each transmitter prepares an ensemble of channel codes. To encode a message, a transmitter chooses a channel code individually without sharing the coding choice with other transmitters or with the receiver.…
