With the advent of massive data outputs at a regular rate, admittedly, signal processing technology plays an increasingly key role. Nowadays, signals are not merely restricted to physical sources, they have been extended to digital sources…

A channel coding achievability bound expressed in terms of the ratio between two Neyman-Pearson $\beta$ functions is proposed. This bound is the dual of a converse bound established earlier by Polyanskiy and Verd\'{u} (2014). The new bound…

We establish the capacity region of several classes of broadcast channels with random state in which the channel to each user is selected from two possible channel state components and the state is known only at the receivers. When the…

In the literature, it has been shown that the secrecy capacity of the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) wiretap channel with noise-free feedback equals the capacity of the same model without secrecy constraint, and the classical…

In Shannon information theory the capacity of a memoryless communication channel cannot be increased by the use of feedback from receiver to sender. In this paper the use of classical feedback is shown to provide no increase in the…

Small neural networks (NNs) used for error correction were shown to improve on classic channel codes and to address channel model changes. We extend the code dimension of any such structure by using the same NN under one-hot encoding…

It is known that sparse superposition codes asymptotically achieve the channel capacity over the additive white Gaussian noise channel with both maximum likelihood decoding and efficient decoding (Joseph and Barron in 2012, 2014). Takeishi…

We consider a continuous-time bandlimited additive white Gaussian noise channel with 1-bit output quantization. On such a channel the information is carried by the temporal distances of the zero-crossings of the transmit signal. The set of…

Polar codes are designed for parallel binary-input additive white Gaussian noise (BiAWGN) channels with an average power constraint. The two main design choices are: the mapping between codeword bits and channels of different quality, and…

Quantum memories can be regarded as quantum channels that transmit information through time without moving it through space. Aiming at a reliable storage of information we may thus not only encode at the beginning and decode at the end, but…

In this letter, we introduce the computational-limited (comp-limited) signals, a communication capacity regime in which the signal time computational complexity overhead is the key constraint -- rather than power or bandwidth -- to the…

In Shannon information theory the capacity of a memoryless communication channel cannot be increased by the use of feedback. In quantum information theory the no-cloning theorem means that noiseless copying and feedback of quantum…

Deep learning methods have recently been used to construct non-linear codes for the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with feedback. However, there is limited understanding of how these black-box-like codes with many learned…
