Symmetry in design and decoding of polar-like codes

The beginning of 21st century provided us with many answers about how to reach the channel capacity. Polarization and spatial coupling are two techniques for achieving the capacity of binary memoryless symmetric channels under low-complexity decoding algor ...

Idempotents in the endomorphism algebra of a finite lattice

Jacques Thévenaz, Serge Bouc

We give a direct construction of a specific central idempotent in the endomorphism algebra of a finite lattice T. This idempotent is associated with all possible sublattices of T which are totally ordered. A generalization is considered in a conjectural fa ...

Packing the Boolean lattice with copies of a poset

Istvan Tomon

The Boolean lattice (2[n],subset of) is the family of all subsets of [n]={1,MIDLINE HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS,n}, ordered by inclusion. Let P be a partially ordered set. We prove that if n is sufficiently large, then there exists a packing P of copies of P in (2 ...

Cooperative Data Exchange and Private Information Retrieval

Su Li

Coding techniques have been well studied and used for improving communication quality by combating noise and mitigating interference. Recently, it has been shown that the same coding techniques can also be exploited to further improve communication perform ...

Bits through Time

Elie Najm

In any communication system, there exist two dimensions through which the information at the source becomes distorted before reaching the destination: the noisy channel and time. Messages transmitted through a noisy channel are susceptible to modification ...

Forbidden induced subposets of given height

Istvan Tomon

Let P be a partially ordered set. The function La* (n, P) denotes the size of the largest family F subset of 2([n]) that does not contain an induced copy of P. It was proved by Methuku and Palvolgyi that there exists a constant C-P (depending only on P) su ...

Construction of Polar Codes With Sublinear Complexity

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Marco Mondelli

Consider the problem of constructing a polar code of block length N for a given transmission channel W. Previous approaches require one to compute the reliability of the N synthetic channels and then use only those that are sufficiently reliable. However, ...

From LDPC Block to LDPC Convolutional Codes: Capacity, Stability, and Universality

Wei Liu, Wei Liu

In his landmark paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication," the founding father of information theory and coding theory, Claude E. Shannon, established the largest rate at which reliable communication is possible and he revealed that the key to this re ...

Almost tiling of the Boolean lattice with copies of a poset

Istvan Tomon

Let P be a partially ordered set. If the Boolean lattice (2[n],⊂) can be partitioned into copies of P for some positive integer n, then P must satisfy the following two trivial conditions: (1) the size of P is a power of 2, (2) P has a unique maximal and m ...

The Velocity of the Propagating Wave for Spatially Coupled Systems With Applications to LDPC Codes

Nicolas Macris, Rafah El-Khatib

We consider the dynamics of message passing for spatially coupled codes and, in particular, the set of density evolution equations that tracks the profile of decoding errors along the spatial direction of coupling. It is known that, for suitable boundary c ...

Early-stage decision making approach for the selection of optimally integrated biorefinery processes

François Maréchal, Shivom Sharma, Adriano Viana Ensinas, Ayse Dilan Celebi

Lignocellulosic biorefineries are the best non-petroleum alternatives for a sustainable development. In the biorefinery process design, it is important to implement an algorithm that allows the systematic generation and the evaluation of energy conversion ...

Coding for Communications and Secrecy

Mani Bastaniparizi

Shannon, in his landmark 1948 paper, developed a framework for characterizing the fundamental limits of information transmission. Among other results, he showed that reliable communication over a channel is possible at any rate below its capacity. In 2008, ...

Multiple-field based code generator and decoder for communications systems

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Lorenz Minder

A method of encoding data for transmission from a source to a destination over a communications channel is provided. The method operates on an ordered set of input symbols and includes generating a plurality of redundant symbols from the input symbols base ...

A Multi-Gbps Unrolled Hardware List Decoder Systematic Polar Code

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Pascal Giard, Thomas Christoph Müller

Polar codes are a new class of block codes with an explicit construction that provably achieve the capacity of various communications channels, even with the low-complexity successive-cancellation (SC) decoding algorithm. Yet, the more complex successive-c ...
