We consider the problem of minimizing upper bounds and maximizing lower bounds on information rates of stationary and ergodic discrete-time channels with memory. The channels we consider can have a finite number of states, such as partial…

We derive lower bounds on the maximal rates for multiple packings in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. Multiple packing is a natural generalization of the sphere packing problem. For any $ N>0 $ and $ L\in\mathbb{Z}_{\ge2} $, a multiple…

Over any discrete memoryless channel, we build codes such that: for one, their block error probabilities and code rates scale like random codes'; and for two, their encoding and decoding complexities scale like polar codes'. Quantitatively,…

In this paper, the paradigm of sphere decoding (SD) for solving the integer least square problem (ILS) is revisited, where extra degrees of freedom are introduced to exploit the decoding potential. Firstly, the equivalent sphere decoding…

Noncontrollable finite-state channels (FSCs) are FSCs in which the channel inputs have no influence on the channel states, i.e., the channel states evolve freely. Since single-letter formulae for the channel capacities are rarely available…
