This paper provides simple lower bounds on the number of iterations which is required for successful message-passing decoding of some important families of graph-based code ensembles (including low-density parity-check codes and variations…

A tight converse bound to channel coding rate in the finite block-length regime and under AWGN conditions was recently proposed by Polyanskiy, Poor, and Verdu (PPV). The bound is a generalization of a number of other classical results, and…

For every p in (0,1/2), we give an explicit construction of binary codes of rate approaching "capacity" 1-H(p) that enable reliable communication in the presence of worst-case additive errors}, caused by a channel oblivious to the codeword…

This paper investigates the scaling exponent of polar codes for binary-input energy-harvesting (EH) channels with infinite-capacity batteries. The EH process is characterized by a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with finite variances.…

We derive a lower bound on the differential entropy of a log-concave random variable $X$ in terms of the $p$-th absolute moment of $X$. The new bound leads to a reverse entropy power inequality with an explicit constant, and to new bounds…

This paper presents a general approach for optimizing the number of symbols in increments (packets of incremental redundancy) in a feedback communication system with a limited number of increments. This approach is based on a tight normal…

A new single-letter achievable rate region is proposed for the two-user discrete memoryless multiple-access channel(MAC) with noiseless feedback. The proposed region includes the Cover-Leung rate region [1], and it is shown that the…

We consider communication over memoryless channels using low-density parity-check code ensembles above the iterative (belief propagation) threshold. What is the computational complexity of decoding (i.e., of reconstructing all the typical…

We provide a tight asymptotic characterization of the error exponent for classical-quantum channel coding assisted by activated non-signaling correlations. Namely, we find that the optimal exponent--also called reliability function--is…

We find the exact typical error exponent of constant composition generalized random Gilbert-Varshamov (RGV) codes over DMCs channels with generalized likelihood decoding. We show that the typical error exponent of the RGV ensemble is equal…

This paper considers the performance of Reed-Muller (RM) codes transmitted over binary memoryless symmetric (BMS) channels under bitwise maximum-a-posteriori (bit-MAP) decoding. Its main result is that, for a fixed BMS channel, the family…

We study the performance of polarizing codes over a degraded symmetric wiretap channel under a total variation distance (TVD) secrecy constraint. We show that the leakage can be bounded by the sum of the TVDs of the bit-channels…

We prove a one-shot "minimax" converse bound for quantum channel coding assisted by positive partial transpose channels between sender and receiver. The bound is similar in spirit to the converse by Polyanskiy, Poor, and Verdu [IEEE Trans.…

This paper establishes the exact strong converse exponent of the soft covering problem in the classical setting. This exponent characterizes the slowest achievable convergence speed of the total variation to one when a code of rate below…

In this paper, random coding error exponents and cutoff rate are studied for noncoherent Rician fading channels, where neither the receiver nor the transmitter has channel side information. First, it is assumed that the input is subject…

We consider the transmission of nonexponentially many messages through a binary symmetric channel with noiseless feedback. We obtain an upper bound for the best decoding error exponent. Combined with the corresponding known lower bound,…

Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications have stringent delay constraints, and hence use codes with small block length (short codewords). In these cases, classical models that provide good approximations to systems with infinitely long…

For output-symmetric DMCs at even moderately high rates, fixed-block-length communication systems show no improvements in their error exponents with feedback. In this paper, we study systems with fixed end-to-end delay and show that…

We derive a sphere-packing error exponent for coded transmission over discrete memoryless channels with a fixed decoding metric. By studying the error probability of the code over an auxiliary channel, we find a lower bound to the…

Some emerging 5G and beyond use-cases impose stringent latency constraints, which necessitates a paradigm shift towards finite blocklength performance analysis. In contrast to Shannon capacity-achieving codes, the codeword length in the…
