The problem of distributed data compression for function computation is considered, where (i) the function to be computed is not necessarily symbol-wise function and (ii) the information source has memory and may not be stationary nor…

We study the theoretical performance of a combined approach to demodulation and decoding of binary continuous-phase modulated signals under repetition-like codes. This technique is motivated by a need to transmit packetized or framed data…

When multiple sources of data need to transmit their rateless coded symbols through a single relay to a common destination, a distributed rateless code instead of several separate conventional rateless codes can be employed to encode the…

In this work we investigate the behavior of the distortion threshold that can be guaranteed in joint source-channel coding, to within a prescribed excess-distortion probability. We show that the gap between this threshold and the optimal…

We consider transmission of a continuous amplitude source over an L-block Rayleigh fading $M_t \times M_r$ MIMO channel when the channel state information is only available at the receiver. Since the channel is not ergodic, Shannon's…

We consider lossy compression of an information source when the decoder has lossless access to a correlated one. This setup, also known as the Wyner-Ziv problem, is a special case of distributed source coding. To this day, practical…
