We study video streaming over a slow fading wireless channel. In a streaming application video packets are required to be decoded and displayed in the order they are transmitted as the transmission goes on. This results in per-packet delay…
This paper considers the problem of simultaneously communicating two messages, a high-security message and a low-security message, to a legitimate receiver, referred to as the security embedding problem. An information-theoretic formulation…
In this paper, a streaming transmission setup is considered where an encoder observes a new message in the beginning of each block and a decoder sequentially decodes each message after a delay of $T$ blocks. In this streaming setup, the…
This paper studies multiuser random coding techniques for channel coding with a given (possibly suboptimal) decoding rule. For the mismatched discrete memoryless multiple-access channel, an error exponent is obtained that is tight with…
We consider an energy harvesting transmitter sending status updates to a receiver over an erasure channel, where each status update is of length $k$ symbols. The energy arrivals and the channel erasures are independent and identically…
Scheduling to avoid packet collisions is a long-standing challenge in networking, and has become even trickier in wireless networks with multiple senders and multiple receivers. In fact, researchers have proved that even {\em perfect}…
Message bundling is an effective way to reduce the energy consumption for message transmissions in wireless sensor networks. However, bundling more messages could increase both end-to-end delay and message transmission interval; the former…

This work considers the smart repeater network where a single source $s$ wants to send two independent packet streams to destinations $\{d_1,d_2\}$ with the help of relay $r$. The transmission from $s$ or $r$ is modeled by packet erasure…
A status updating communication system is examined, in which a transmitter communicates with a receiver over a noisy channel. The goal is to realize timely delivery of fresh data over time, which is assessed by an age-of-information (AoI)…

In this paper, we introduce novel coding schemes for wireless networks with random transmission delays. These coding schemes obviate the need for synchronicity, reduce the number of transmissions and achieve the optimal rate region in the…
This paper investigates variable-length stop-feedback codes for memoryless channels in point-to-point, multiple access, and random access communication scenarios. The proposed codes employ $L$ decoding times $n_1, n_2, \dots, n_L$ for the…
In this paper, we aim to explore the stochastic performance limit of large-field-size Random Linear Streaming Codes (RLSCs) in multi-hop relay networks. In our model, a source transmits a sequence of streaming messages to a destination…
We study information-theoretic security for discrete memoryless interference and broadcast channels with independent confidential messages sent to two receivers. Confidential messages are transmitted to their respective receivers with…
This paper proposes an encoding/decoding framework for achieving the optimal channel capacities of the two-user broadcast channel where each user (receiver) has the message targeted for the other user (receiver) as side information. Since…
Network coding is a highly efficient data dissemination mechanism for wireless networks. Since network coded information can only be recovered after delivering a sufficient number of coded packets, the resulting decoding delay can become…
We consider the problem of broadcast with common messages, and focus on the case that the common message rate $R_{\mathcal{A}}$, i.e., the rate of the message intended for all the receivers in the set $\mathcal{A}$, is the same for all the…
