We propose a two-layer coding architecture for communication of multiple users over a shared slotted medium enabling joint collision resolution and decoding. Each user first encodes its information bits with an outer code for reliability,…

Grant-free random access (RA) techniques are suitable for machine-type communication (MTC) networks but they need to be adaptive to the MTC traffic, which is different from the human-type communication. Conventional RA protocols such as…

Consider a connected network of n nodes that all wish to recover k desired packets. Each node begins with a subset of the desired packets and exchanges coded packets with its neighbors. This paper provides necessary and sufficient…

We examine the age of information (AoI) of a status update system that incorporates energy harvesting and uses the slotted ALOHA protocol. We derive analytically the average AoI and the probability that the AoI exceeds a given threshold.…

Age of information (AoI) is gaining attention as a valuable performance metric for many IoT systems, in which a large number of devices report time-stamped updates to a central gateway. This is the case, for instance, of remote sensing,…

Multi-replicA decoding using corRelation baSed LocALisAtion (MARSALA) is a recent random access technique designed for satellite return links. It follows the multiple transmission and interference cancellation scheme of Contention…

In this paper, we propose a fast decoder algorithm for uniquely decodable (errorless) code sets for overloaded synchronous optical code-division multiple-access (O-CDMA) systems. The proposed decoder is designed in a such a way that the…

By extending the traditional store-and-forward mechanism, network coding has the capability to improve a network's throughput, robustness, and security. Given the fundamentally different packet processing required by this new paradigm and…

Cooperative diversity systems are wireless communication systems designed to exploit cooperation among users to mitigate the effects of multipath fading. In fairly general conditions, it has been shown that these systems can achieve the…

This paper considers a relay-assisted bidirectional cellular network where the base station (BS) communicates with each mobile station (MS) using OFDMA for both uplink and downlink. The goal is to improve the overall system performance by…

This study proposes the integration of a cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (CNOMA) and improved hybrid simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (IHS SWIPT) protocol (termed as CNOMA-IHS) to enhance the spectral…

We introduce a model for the classical synchronised multiple access system with a single transmission channel and a randomised transmission protocol (ALOHA). We assume in addition that there is an energy harvesting mechanism, and any…

Predicting the current backlog, or traffic load, in framed-ALOHA networks enables the optimization of resource allocation, e.g., of the frame size. However, this prediction is made difficult by the lack of information about the cardinality…

In this paper, we develop a probabilistic framework for analyzing coded random access. Our framework is based on a new abstract receiver (decoder), called a Poisson receiver, that is characterized by a success probability function of a…

A key feature in the design of any MAC protocol is the throughput it can provide. In wireless networks, the channel of a user is not fixed but varies randomly. Thus, in order to maximize the throughput of the MAC protocol at any given time,…

We study the optimal transmission scheme that maximizes the local capacity in two-dimensional (2D) wireless networks. Local capacity is defined as the average information rate received by a node randomly located in the network. Using…

This paper considers a random access system where each sender can be in two modes of operation, active or not active, and where the set of active users is available to a common receiver only. Active transmitters encode data into independent…

A novel combination of established data analysis techniques for reconstructing all charged-particle tracks in high energy collisions is proposed. It uses all information available in a collision event while keeping competing choices open as…

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) can improve the spectral efficiency by exploiting the power domain and successive interference cancellation (SIC), and it can be applied to various transmission schemes including random access that…

Network coding and cooperative communication have received considerable attention from the research community recently in order to mitigate the adverse effects of fading in wireless transmissions and at the same time to achieve high…
