We develop an analogue for sphere packing of the linear programming bounds for error-correcting codes, and use it to prove upper bounds for the density of sphere packings, which are the best bounds known at least for dimensions 4 through…
Recent work have shown that Reed-Muller (RM) codes achieve the erasure channel capacity. However, this performance is obtained with maximum-likelihood decoding which can be costly for practical applications. In this paper, we propose an…
We propose two types of universal codes that are suited to two asymptotic regimes when the output alphabet is possibly continuous. The first class has the property that the error probability decays exponentially fast and we identify an…
