This paper presents a framework to evaluate the probability that a decision error event occurs in wireless sensor networks, including sensing and communication errors. We consider a scenario where sensors need to identify whether a given…

Covert communication conceals transmission of messages from Alice to Bob out of a watchful adversary, Willie, who tries to determine if a transmission took place or not. While covert communication in a basic, vanilla setting where all…

Wireless short-packet communications pose challenges to the security and reliability of the transmission. Besides, the proactive warder compounds these challenges, who detects and interferes with the potential transmission. An extra jamming…

This paper investigates an expected average error for distributed averaging problems under asynchronous updates. The asynchronism in this context implies no existence of a global clock as well as random characteristics in communication…

We study a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channel (MAC) from several multi-antenna transmitters to a multi-antenna receiver. The fading channels between the transmitters and the receiver are modeled by random…

Multipath interference is an ubiquitous phenomenon in modern communication systems. The conventional way to compensate for this effect is to equalize the channel by estimating its impulse response by transmitting a set of training symbols.…

By using smart radio devices, a jammer can dynamically change its jamming policy based on opposing security mechanisms; it can even induce the mobile device to enter a specific communication mode and then launch the jamming policy…

We design a jamming-resistant receiver scheme to enhance the robustness of a massive MIMO uplink system against jamming. We assume that a jammer attacks the system both in the pilot and data transmission phases. The key feature of the…

In this thesis, we are interested in the limits of quantum communication with and without entanglement, and with and without noise assumptions on the communication setup. When a sender and a receiver are connected by a communication line…

This paper considers the problem of distributed state estimation using multi-robot systems. The robots have limited communication capabilities and, therefore, communicate their measurements intermittently only when they are physically close…

We consider the problem of estimating the arithmetic average of a finite collection of real vectors stored in a distributed fashion across several compute nodes subject to a communication budget constraint. Our analysis does not rely on any…

We investigate the maximum rates for transmitting quantum information, distilling entanglement, and distributing secret keys between a sender and a receiver in a multipoint communication scenario, with the assistance of unlimited two-way…

We introduce and analyse a multiple-access channel with two senders and one receiver, in the presence of i.i.d. noise coming from the environment. Partial side information about the environmental states allows the senders to modulate their…

We consider the problem of optimal probing of states of a channel by transmitter and receiver for maximizing rate of reliable communication. The channel is discrete memoryless (DMC) with i.i.d. states. The encoder takes probing actions…

In this paper, we study the state-dependent two-user interference channel, where the state information is non-causally known at both transmitters but unknown to either of the receivers. We first propose two coding schemes for the discrete…

The effect of "good", point-to-point capacity achieving, code sequences on an additional signal, of bounded variance, transmitted over the additive Gaussian noise channel is examined. For such code sequences, it is shown that their effect,…

Suppose that a transmitter Alice potentially wishes to communicate with a receiver Bob over an adversarially jammed binary channel. An active adversary James eavesdrops on their communication over a binary symmetric channel (BSC(q)), and…
