Channel coding for discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) with mean and variance cost constraints has been recently introduced. We show that there is an improvement in coding performance due to cost variability, both with and without feedback.…

This paper considers multiplexing two sequences of messages with two different decoding delays over a packet erasure channel. In each time slot, the source constructs a packet based on the current and previous messages and transmits the…

A coding scheme for the discrete memoryless broadcast channel with {noiseless, noisy, generalized} feedback is proposed, and the associated achievable region derived. The scheme is based on a block-Markov strategy combining the Marton…

For any quantum discrete memoryless channel, we define a quantity called quantum entanglement capacity with classical feedback ($E_B$), and we show that this quantity lies between two other well-studied quantities. These two quantities -…

This paper considers the transmission of an infinite sequence of messages (a streaming source) over a packet erasure channel, where every source message must be recovered perfectly at the destination subject to a fixed decoding delay. While…

An upper bound on the feedback capacity of unifilar finite-state channels (FSCs) is derived. A new technique, called the $Q$-contexts, is based on a construction of a directed graph that is used to quantize recursively the receiver's output…

Linear coding schemes have been the main choice of coding for the additive white Gaussian noise broadcast channel (AWGN-BC) with noiseless feedback in the literature. The achievable rate regions of these schemes go well beyond the capacity…

We consider a binary erasure version of the n-channel multiple descriptions problem with symmetric descriptions, i.e., the rates of the n descriptions are the same and the distortion constraint depends only on the number of messages…

The quantum capacity of a memoryless channel is often used as a single figure of merit to characterize its ability to transmit quantum information coherently. The capacity determines the maximal rate at which we can code reliably over…

We propose a method to increase the capacity achieved by uniform prior in discrete memoryless channels (DMC) with high input cardinality. It consists in appropriately reducing the input set. Different design criteria of the input subset are…

This paper focuses on the Layered Packet Erasure Broadcast Channel (LPE-BC) with Channel Output Feedback (COF) available at the transmitter. The LPE-BC is a high-SNR approximation of the fading Gaussian BC recently proposed by Tse and…

We analyze the trade-off between the undetected error probability (i.e., the probability that the channel decoder outputs an erroneous message without detecting the error) and the total error probability in the short blocklength regime. We…

In this paper, we consider a semi-deterministic wiretap channel where the main channel is noiseless and the eavesdropper's channel is a binary erasure channel (BEC). We provide a lower bound for the achievable secrecy rates of polar and…

A rateless coding scheme transmits incrementally more and more coded bits over an unknown channel until all the information bits are decoded reliably by the receiver. We propose a new rateless coding scheme based on polar codes, and we show…

We consider the zero-error capacity of deletion channels. Specifically, we consider the setting where we choose a codebook ${\cal C}$ consisting of strings of $n$ bits, and our model of the channel corresponds to an adversary who may delete…

The information bottleneck channel (or the oblivious relay channel) concerns a channel coding setting where the decoder does not directly observe the channel output. Rather, the channel output is relayed to the decoder by an oblivious relay…
