Error probabilities of random codes for memoryless channels are considered in this paper. In the area of communication systems, admissible error probability is very small and it is sometimes more important to discuss the relative gap…
The interference channel models a wireless network where several source-destination pairs compete for the same resources. When nodes transmit simultaneously the destinations experience interference. This paper considers a 4-node network,…
We consider a line network of nodes, connected by additive white Gaussian noise channels, equipped with local feedback. We study the velocity at which information spreads over this network. For transmission of a data packet, we give an…
We study the one-shot zero-error classical capacity of a quantum channel assisted by quantum no-signalling correlations, and the reverse problem of exact simulation of a prescribed channel by a noiseless classical one. Quantum no-signalling…
For any channel with a convex constraint set and finite Augustin capacity, existence of a unique Augustin center and associated Erven-Harremoes bound are established. Augustin-Legendre capacity, center, and radius are introduced and proved…
A concatenated coding scheme over binary memoryless symmetric (BMS) channels using a polarization transformation followed by outer sub-codes is analyzed. Achievable error exponents and upper bounds on the error rate are derived. The first…
In this study we consider rateless coding over discrete memoryless channels (DMC) with feedback. Unlike traditional fixed-rate codes, in rateless codes each codeword is infinitely long, and the decoding time depends on the confidence level…
We derive a single-letter formula for the zero-rate reliability (error exponent) of a finite-state channel whose state variable depends deterministically (and recursively) on past channel inputs, where the code complies with a given channel…
The problem of error-control in random linear network coding is considered. A ``noncoherent'' or ``channel oblivious'' model is assumed where neither transmitter nor receiver is assumed to have knowledge of the channel transfer…
We present nonasymptotic upper and lower bounds on the maximum coding rate achievable when transmitting short packets over a Rician memoryless block-fading channel for a given requirement on the packet error probability. We focus on the…
We consider the discrete memoryless degraded broadcast channels. We prove that the error probability of decoding tends to one exponentially for rates outside the capacity region and derive an explicit lower bound of this exponent function.…
We examine lossless data compression from an average delay perspective. An encoder receives input symbols one per unit time from an i.i.d. source and submits binary codewords to a FIFO buffer that transmits bits at a fixed rate to a…
When transmitting information over a noisy channel, two approaches, dating back to Shannon's work, are common: assuming the channel errors are independent of the transmitted content and devising an error-correcting code, or assuming the…
We characterise bounds on the optimal broadcast rate for a few classes of pliable-index-coding instances. Unlike the majority of currently solved instances, which belong to a special class where all receivers with a certain side-information…
We make use of the tools of quantum information theory to shed light on the Unruh effect. A modal qubit appears as if subjected to quantum noise that degrades quantum information, as observed in the accelerated reference frame. The Unruh…
We introduce a new analysis technique to derive a single-letter upper bound on the mismatch capacity of a stationary, single-user, memoryless channel with a decoding metric $q$. Our bound is obtained by considering a multicast transmission…
The reliability function of memoryless channels with noiseless feedback and variable-length coding has been found to be a linear function of the average rate in the classic work of Burnashev. In this work we consider unifilar channels with…
A pure-loss bosonic channel is a simple model for communication over free-space or fiber-optic links. More generally, phase-insensitive bosonic channels model other kinds of noise, such as thermalizing or amplifying processes. Recent work…
There are currently a plurality of capacity theories of fading channels, including the ergodic capacity for fast fading channels and outage capacity for slow fading channels. However, analyses show that the outage capacity is a…
This paper studies the second-order asymptotics of the Gaussian multiple-access channel with degraded message sets. For a fixed average error probability $\varepsilon \in (0,1)$ and an arbitrary point on the boundary of the capacity region,…
