Suppose Alice wishes to send messages to Bob through a communication channel C_1, but her transmissions also reach an eavesdropper Eve through another channel C_2. The goal is to design a coding scheme that makes it possible for Alice to…
For a binary-input memoryless symmetric channel $W$, we consider the asymptotic behavior of the polarization process in the large block-length regime when transmission takes place over $W$. In particular, we study the asymptotics of the…
The polar transformation of a binary erasure channel (BEC) can be exactly approximated by other BECs. Ar{\i}kan proposed that polar codes for a BEC can be efficiently constructed by using its useful property. This study proposes a new class…
Holevo, Schumacher, and Westmoreland's coding theorem guarantees the existence of codes that are capacity-achieving for the task of sending classical data over a channel with classical inputs and quantum outputs. Although they demonstrated…
Computing channel capacity is in general intractable because it is given by the limit of a sequence of optimization problems whose dimensionality grows to infinity. As a result, constant-sized characterizations of feedback or non-feedback…
The problem of channel coding with the erasure option is revisited for discrete memoryless channels. The interplay between the code rate, the undetected and total error probabilities is characterized. Using the information spectrum method,…
Recently, the authors showed that Reed-Muller (RM) codes achieve capacity on binary memoryless symmetric (BMS) channels with respect to bit error rate. This paper extends that work by showing that RM codes defined on non-binary fields,…
We present an upper bound for the quantum channel capacity that is both additive and convex. Our bound can be interpreted as the capacity of a channel for high-fidelity quantum communication when assisted by a family of channels that have…
Typical performance of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes over a general binary-input output-symmetric memoryless channel is investigated using methods of statistical mechanics. Theoretical framework for dealing with general symmetric…
We introduce a new family of concatenated codes with an outer low-density parity-check (LDPC) code and an inner low-density generator matrix (LDGM) code, and prove that these codes can achieve capacity under any memoryless binary-input…
The general subject considered in this thesis is a recently discovered coding technique, polar coding, which is used to construct a class of error correction codes with unique properties. In his ground-breaking work, Ar{\i}kan proved that…
When information is to be transmitted over an unknown, possibly unreliable channel, an erasure option at the decoder is desirable. Using constant-composition random codes, we propose a generalization of Csiszar and Korner's Maximum Mutual…
We prove two results on the universality of polar codes for source coding and channel communication. First, we show that for any polar code built for a source $P_{X,Z}$ there exists a slightly modified polar code - having the same rate, the…
It is known that polar codes can be efficiently constructed for binary-input channels. At the same time, existing algorithms for general input alphabets are less practical because of high complexity. We address the construction problem for…
In this paper, new techniques are presented to either simplify or improve most existing upper bounds on the maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding performance of the binary linear codes over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. Firstly,…
The quantum capacity captures the value of a quantum channel for transmitting quantum information, establishing the fundamental limits on quantum communication. In spite of its central role in quantum information theory, the quantum…
This work investigates the fundamental limits of communication over a noisy discrete memoryless channel that wears out, in the sense of signal-dependent catastrophic failure. In particular, we consider a channel that starts as a memoryless…
We study the classical problem of noisy constrained capacity in the case of the binary symmetric channel (BSC), namely, the capacity of a BSC whose inputs are sequences chosen from a constrained set. Motivated by a result of Ordentlich and…
In this paper, density evolution-based construction methods to design good polar codes on impulsive noise channels for single-carrier and multi-carrier systems are proposed and evaluated. For a single-carrier system, the tight bound of the…
In this paper, we derive analytic expressions for the success probability of decoding (Partial) Unit Memory codes in memoryless channels. An applications of this result is that these codes outperform individual block codes in certain…
