Classically, no information can be transmitted through a depolarising, that is a completely noisy, channel. We show that by combining a depolarising channel with another channel in an indefinite causal order---that is, when there is…
We consider the problem of trying to send a single classical bit through a noisy quantum channel when two transmissions through the channel are available as a resource. Classically, two transmissions add nothing to the receiver's capability…
Encoding schemes and error-correcting codes are widely used in information technology to improve the reliability of data transmission over real-world communication channels. Quantum information protocols can further enhance the performance…
In this paper, we consider the effect of feedback channel error on the throughput of one-hop wireless networks under the random connection model. The transmission strategy is based on activating source-destination pairs with strongest…
For information transmission a discrete time channel with independent additive Gaussian noise is used. There is also feedback channel with independent additive Gaussian noise, and the transmitter observes without delay all outputs of the…
We study optimal rates for quantum communication over a single use of a channel, which itself can correspond to a finite number of uses of a channel with arbitrarily correlated noise. The corresponding capacity is often referred to as the…
We consider a Gaussian multiple-access channel where the number of transmitters grows with the blocklength $n$. For this setup, the maximum number of bits that can be transmitted reliably per unit-energy is analyzed. We show that if the…
We analyze the channel capacity of a system with a large number of one-bit transceivers in a classical Rayleigh environment with perfect channel information at the receiver. With $M$ transmitters and $N=\alpha M$ receivers, we derive an…
This paper investigates information-theoretic oblivious transfer via a discrete memoryless broadcast channel with one sender and two receivers. We analyze both non-colluding and colluding honest-but-curious user models and establish general…
We establish the capacity of a class of communication channels introduced in [1]. The $n$-letter input from a finite alphabet is passed through a discrete memoryless channel $P_{Z|X}$ and then the output $n$-letter sequence is uniformly…
One of the main figures of merit for quantum memories and quantum communication devices is their quantum capacity. It has been studied for arbitrary kinds of quantum channels, but its practical estimation has so far been limited to devices…
We find a tight upper bound for the classical capacity of quantum thermal noise channels that is within $1/\ln 2$ bits of Holevo's lower bound. This lower bound is achievable using unentangled, classical signal states, namely displaced…
We develop several lower bounds on the capacity of binary input symmetric output channels with synchronization errors which also suffer from other types of impairments such as substitutions, erasures, additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN)…
The quantum capacity of a noisy quantum channel determines the maximal rate at which we can code reliably over asymptotically many uses of the channel, and it characterizes the channel's ultimate ability to transmit quantum information…
We consider the transmission of a single bit over the continuous-time Poisson channel with noiseless feedback. We show that to send the bit reliably requires, on the average, half the energy of a photon. In the absence of peak-power…
In this paper, we first consider a channel that is contaminated by two independent Gaussian noises $S ~ N(0,Q)$ and $Z_0 ~ N(0,N_0)$. The capacity of this channel is computed when independent noisy versions of $S$ are known to the…
The entanglement-assisted classical capacity of a noisy quantum channel is the amount of information per channel use that can be sent over the channel in the limit of many uses of the channel, assuming that the sender and receiver have…
In this paper, we study a model of communication under adversarial noise. In this model, the adversary makes online decisions on whether to corrupt a transmitted bit based on only the value of that bit. Like the usual binary symmetric…
This paper investigates the minimum energy required to transmit $k$ information bits with a given reliability over a multiple-antenna Rayleigh block-fading channel, with and without channel state information (CSI) at the receiver. No…
Any physical channel of communication offers two potential reasons why its capacity (the number of bits it can transmit in a unit of time) might be unbounded: (1) Infinitely many choices of signal strength at any given instant of time, and…
