Extremely large-scale reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (XL-RISs) have emerged as a promising technology for millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications. However, the exceedingly large aperture of XL-RISs renders the RIS-user links likely to…
Information theory plays a central role in establishing fundamental limits on what any learning or estimation algorithm can -- and cannot -- achieve, regardless of computational power. In this chapter, we provide an introduction to these…
Quantum low-density parity-check codes are promising candidates for low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum computing, but degeneracy is known to impair the convergence of belief-propagation (BP) decoding of these codes. In this work, we show…

Semantic communication (SemCom) is accelerating its momentum to catch up with the massive increase in users' demands in both quantity and quality, with the assistance of advanced deep learning (DL) techniques. Specifically, SemCom can…
The soft-output successive cancellation list (SO-SCL) decoder provides a methodology for estimating the a-posteriori probability log-likelihood ratios by only leveraging the conventional SCL decoder of polar codes. However, the sequential…

In the paper, the physical-layer security for reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) aided integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system is studied. There is an active eavesdropper (AE) as well as a passive eavesdropper (PE), and…
Motivated by the constructions of binary sequences by utilizing the cyclic elliptic function fields over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{2^{n}}$ by Jin \textit{et al.} in [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 71(8), 2025], we extend the construction to…
Robustness and adaptivity are two competing objectives in Kalman filters (KF). Robustness involves temporarily inflating prior estimates of noise covariances, while adaptivity updates prior beliefs by exploiting measurements. In practical…
Spatially-coupled (SC) codes are a class of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes that have excellent performance thanks to the degrees of freedom they offer. An SC code is designed by partitioning a base matrix into components, the number…

We address the problem of reliable data transmission within a finite time horizon $T$ over a binary erasure channel with unknown erasure probability. We consider a feedback model wherein the transmitter can query the receiver infrequently…
Additive codes may have better parameters than linear codes. However, still very few cases are known and the explicit construction of such codes is a challenging problem. Here we show that a Griesmer type bound for the length of additive…
