This paper investigates ARQ (Automatic Repeat request) designs for PNC (Physical-layer Network Coding) systems. We have previously found that, besides TWRC (Two-Way Relay Channel) operated on the principle of PNC, there are many other PNC…
As techniques for fault-tolerant quantum computation keep improving, it is natural to ask: what is the fundamental lower bound on redundancy? In this paper, we obtain a lower bound on the redundancy required for $\epsilon$-accurate…
In the present paper, we propose a broadcast ARQ protocol based on the concept of index coding. In the proposed scenario, a server wishes to transmit a finite sequence of packets to multiple receivers via a broadcast channel with packet…
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…
A status updating system is considered in which a variable length code is used to transmit messages to a receiver over a noisy channel. The goal is to optimize the codewords lengths such that successfully-decoded messages are timely. That…

This paper is motivated by the problem of error control in network coding when errors are introduced in a random fashion (rather than chosen by an adversary). An additive-multiplicative matrix channel is considered as a model for random…

We study natural examples of binary channels with synchronization errors. These include the duplication channel, which independently outputs a given bit once or twice, and geometric channels that repeat a given bit according to a geometric…
This paper investigates achievable information rates and error exponents of mismatched decoding when the channel belongs to the class of channels that are close to the decoding metric in terms of relative entropy. For both discrete- and…
The prevailing assumption of an exponential decay in large language model (LLM) reliability with sequence length, predicated on independent per-token error probabilities, posits an inherent limitation for long autoregressive outputs. Our…
An upper bound to the identification capacity of discrete memoryless wiretap channels is derived under the requirement of semantic effective secrecy, combining semantic secrecy and stealth constraints. A previously established lower bound…
The transmission of a Gaussian source over a block-fading multiple antenna channel in the presence of a feedback link is considered. The feedback link is assumed to be an error and delay free link of capacity 1 bit per channel use. Under…
