Practical storage systems often adopt erasure codes to tolerate device failures and sector failures, both of which are prevalent in the field. However, traditional erasure codes employ device-level redundancy to protect against sector…

Recently a powerful class of rate-compatible serially concatenated convolutional codes (SCCCs) have been proposed based on minimizing analytical upper bounds on the error probability in the error floor region. Here this class of codes is…

Spatially coupled turbo-like codes (SC-TCs) have been shown to have excellent decoding thresholds due to the threshold saturation effect. Furthermore, even for moderate block lengths, simulation results demonstrate very good bit error rate…

This paper focuses on error thresholds for Pauli channels. We numerically compute lower bounds for the thresholds using the analytic framework of coset weight enumerators pioneered by DiVincenzo, Shor and Smolin in 1998. In particular, we…

We derive a single-letter upper bound to the mismatched-decoding capacity for discrete memoryless channels. The bound is expressed as the mutual information of a transformation of the channel, such that a maximum-likelihood decoding error…

It is proved in this work that exhaustively determining bad patterns in arbitrary, finite low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, including stopping sets for binary erasure channels (BECs) and trapping sets (also known as near-codewords) for…

Irregular repetition slotted aloha (IRSA) is a grant-free random access protocol for massive machine-type communications, where a large number of users sporadically send their data packets to a base station (BS). IRSA is a completely…

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…

Stabilizer channels are stabilizer circuits that implement logical operations while mapping from an input stabilizer code to an output stabilizer code. They are widely used to implement fault tolerant error correction and logical operations…

We study the lattice agreement (LA) and atomic snapshot problems in asynchronous message-passing systems where up to $f$ nodes may crash. Our main result is a crash-tolerant atomic snapshot algorithm with \textit{amortized constant round…

We propose a novel distributed random access scheme for wireless networks based on slotted ALOHA, motivated by the analogies between successive interference cancellation and iterative belief-propagation decoding on erasure channels. The…

We consider the problem of error control in a coded, multicast network, focusing on the scenario where the errors can occur only on a proper subset of the network edges. We model this problem via an adversarial noise, presenting a formal…

In this paper, we study the graphical structure of elementary trapping sets (ETS) of variable-regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. ETSs are known to be the main cause of error floor in LDPC coding schemes. For the set of LDPC…

I present the Automated Line Fitting Algorithm, ALFA, a new code which can fit emission line spectra of arbitrary wavelength coverage and resolution, fully automatically. In contrast to traditional emission line fitting methods which…

Memory spatial errors, i.e., buffer overflow vulnerabilities, have been a well-known issue in computer security for a long time and remain one of the root causes of exploitable vulnerabilities. Most of the existing mitigation tools adopt a…

Despite the long history of research on slotted ALOHA, the exact analysis of the average delay is still in question as the performance of each node is coupled with the activity of other nodes. In this paper, we consider a network comprised…

LoRaWAN is one of the most promising standards for long-range sensing applications. However, the high number of end devices expected in at-scale deployment, combined with the absence of an effective synchronization scheme, challenge the…

In this paper, an improved ALOHA-based unsourced random access (URA) scheme is proposed in MIMO channels. The channel coherent interval is divided into multiple sub-slots and each active user selects several sub-slots to send its codeword,…

LDPC codes are used in many applications, however, their error correcting capabilities are limited by the presence of stopping sets and trapping sets. Trapping sets and stopping sets occur when specific low-wiehgt error patterns cause a…

Communication over the binary erasure channel (BEC) using low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and belief propagation (BP) decoding is considered. The average bit error probability of an irregular LDPC code ensemble after a fixed number of…
