A real-time communication system with two encoders communicating with a single receiver over separate noisy channels is considered. The two encoders make distinct partial observations of a Markov source. Each encoder must encode its…

Capacity formulas and random-coding exponents are derived for a generalized family of Gel'fand-Pinsker coding problems. These exponents yield asymptotic upper bounds on the achievable log probability of error. In our model, information is…
In this paper q-ary Raptor codes under ML decoding are considered. An upper bound on the probability of decoding failure is derived using the weight enumerator of the outer code, or its expected weight enumerator if the outer code is drawn…
