Communication networks are often designed and analyzed assuming tight synchronization among nodes. However, in applications that require communication in the energy-efficient regime of low signal-to-noise ratios, establishing tight…

This paper considers a diamond network with $n$ interconnected relays, namely a network where a source communicates with a destination by hopping information through $n$ communicating/interconnected relays. Specifically, the main focus of…

We consider scaling laws for maximal energy efficiency of communicating a message to all the nodes in a wireless network, as the number of nodes in the network becomes large. Two cases of large wireless networks are studied -- dense random…

We consider a diamond-shaped dual-hop communication system consisting a source, two parallel half-duplex relays and a destination. In a single antenna configuration, it has been previously shown that a two-phase node-scheduling algorithm,…

A diamond network is considered in which the central processor is connected, via backhaul noiseless links, to multiple conferencing base stations, which communicate with a single user over a multiple access channel. We propose coding…

In this paper, a dual-hop communication system composed of a source S and a destination D connected through two non-interfering half-duplex relays, R1 and R2, is considered. In the literature of Information Theory, this configuration is…

We consider the Gaussian "diamond" or parallel relay network, in which a source node transmits a message to a destination node with the help of N relays. Even for the symmetric setting, in which the channel gains to the relays are identical…

Message bundling is an effective way to reduce the energy consumption for message transmissions in wireless sensor networks. However, bundling more messages could increase both end-to-end delay and message transmission interval; the former…

We consider the delay minimization problem in an energy harvesting communication network with energy cooperation. In this network, nodes harvest energy from nature for use in data transmission, and may transfer a portion of their harvested…

The minimum energy, and, more generally, the minimum cost, to transmit one bit of information has been recently derived for bursty communication when information is available infrequently at random times at the transmitter. This result…

Consider a relay cascade, i.e. a network where a source node, a sink node and a certain number of intermediate source/relay nodes are arranged on a line and where adjacent node pairs are connected by error-free (q+1)-ary pipes. Suppose the…

This paper develops a novel approach to obtaining energy-efficient transmission schedules for delay-limited bursty data arrivals under non-ideal circuit power consumption. Assuming a-prior knowledge of packet arrivals, deadlines and channel…

We consider the N-relay Gaussian diamond network where a source node communicates to a destination node via N parallel relays through a cascade of a Gaussian broadcast (BC) and a multiple access (MAC) channel. Introduced in 2000 by Schein…

Here, we consider the open issue of how the energy efficiency of neural information transmission process in a general neuronal array constrains the network size, and how well this network size ensures the neural information being…

In this paper, the diamond relay channel is considered, which consists of one source-destination pair and two relay nodes connected with rate-limited out-of-band conferencing links. In particular, we focus on the half-duplex alternative…

We present a deterministic channel model which captures several key features of multiuser wireless communication. We consider a model for a wireless network with nodes connected by such deterministic channels, and present an exact…

In a wireless network with a single source and a single destination and an arbitrary number of relay nodes, what is the maximum rate of information flow achievable? We make progress on this long standing problem through a two-step approach.…

Energy efficiency of fixed-rate transmissions is studied in the presence of queueing constraints and channel uncertainty. It is assumed that neither the transmitter nor the receiver has channel side information prior to transmission. The…

In wireless networks, consisting of battery-powered devices, energy is a costly resource and most of it is spent on transmitting and receiving messages. Broadcast is a problem where a message needs to be transmitted from one node to all…

The minimum energy, and, more generally, the minimum cost, to transmit one bit of information has been recently derived for bursty communication when information is available infrequently at random times at the transmitter. Furthermore, it…
