In this article, we present a new class of codes known as row-column twisted Reed-Solomon codes (abbreviated as RCTRS), motivated by the works of \cite{beelen2017twisted} and \cite{liu2025column}. We explicitly provide conditions for such…

This paper investigates streaming codes over three-node relay networks under burst packet erasures with a delay constraint $T$. In any sliding window of $T+1$ consecutive packets, the source-to-relay and relay-to-destination channels may…

This paper investigates the existence of minimal $p$-encoders for convolutional codes over $\mathbb{Z}_{p^r}$, where $p$ is a prime. This addresses a conjecture from \cite{k}, which posits that every such code admits a minimal $p$-encoder,…

This paper studies a broadband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system aided by a beyond diagonal intelligent reflecting surface (BD-IRS), where inter-connections exist among different elements such that the reflection…

This work proposes an iterative detection, decoding and channel estimation scheme for multiple-antenna systems assisted by multiple reflective intelligent surfaces (RIS). A novel channel estimation technique that exploits low-density…

A reconfigurable pinching-antenna system (PASS) is presented, endowing pinching antennas (PAs) with both amplitude- and phase-controllable radiation beyond conventional implementations. To characterize this feature, a general and physically…

We propose a complex-valued neural-network (CV-NN) framework to optimally configure stacked intelligent surfaces (SIS) in next-generation multi-antenna systems. Unlike conventional solutions that separately tune analog metasurface phases or…

In this work, a novel soft continuum robot-inspired antenna array is proposed, featuring tentacle-like structures with multiple antenna elements. The proposed array achieves reconfigurability through continuous deformation of its geometry,…

The explosive growth of teletraffic, fueled by the convergence of cyber-physical systems and data-intensive applications, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous systems, and immersive communications, demands a multidisciplinary…

This paper studies a networked sensing system with multiple base stations (BSs), which collaboratively sense the unknown and random three-dimensional (3D) location of a target based on the target-reflected echo signals received at the BSs.…

The performance of Reed--Solomon codes (RS codes, for short) in the presence of insertion and deletion errors has attracted growing attention in recent literature. In this work, we further study this intriguing mathematical problem,…

This paper introduces a computational approach to identify performance constraints in the time-domain, offering a way to design systems in pulse operation. This work presents a comprehensive application of convex optimization to determine…

In this paper, we investigate codes designed to correct two bursts of deletions, where each burst has a length of exactly $b$, where $b>1$. The previous best construction, achieved through the syndrome compression technique, had a…

In the pooled data problem, the goal is to identify the categories associated with a large collection of items via a sequence of pooled tests. Each pooled test reveals the number of items in the pool belonging to each category. A prominent…

This paper explores the distributed broadcast problem within the context of network communications, a critical challenge in decentralized information dissemination. We put forth a novel hypergraph-based approach to address this issue,…

In this paper, we study the problem of information-theoretic distributed multi-user point function, involving a trusted master node, $N \in \mathbb{N}$ server nodes, and $K\in \mathbb{N}$ users, where each user has access to the contents of…

In this paper, we propose a method to obtain the optimal metric function at each depth of the polarization tree through a process we call polarization of the metric function. This polarization process generates an optimal metric at…

By an analogy to the duality between the recurrence time and the longest match length, we introduce a quantity dual to the maximal repetition length, which we call the repetition time. Extending prior results, we sandwich the repetition…

Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations play a pivotal role in sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks by providing global coverage, massive connections, and huge capacity. In this paper, we present a novel LEO satellite…

This paper studies a novel movable antenna (MA)-enhanced multiuser multiple-input multiple-output downlink system designed to improve wireless communication performance. We aim to maximize the average achievable sum rate through…
