Dispensing with Channel Estimation: Differentially Modulated Cooperative Wireless Communications

TL;DR: These investigations demonstrate the quantitative benefits of cooperative wireless networks both from a pure capacity perspective as well as from a practical system design perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI

Network-level performance evaluation of a two-relay cooperative random access wireless system

TL;DR: This paper investigates the benefits from the deployment of a second relay in a wireless networks system, in which the users are divided into clusters, each being served by one relay, and shows its advantages in terms of aggregate and throughput per user.

Lossy Compression for Compute-and-Forward in Limited Backhaul Uplink Multicell Processing

TL;DR: In this article, two lattice-based coding schemes are proposed for cloud radio access networks with multiple base stations, acting as relay nodes, connected to a central processor via error-free rate-limited backhaul links.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance Analysis and Optimization of the Coverage Probability in Dual Hop LoRa Networks With Different Fading Channels

TL;DR: The findings show that the impact of imperfect orthogonality is not non-negligible, along with the intra-SF interference and the coverage probability is significantly improved when the location of relay is optimized.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Generalized relaying in the presence of interference

TL;DR: Capacity gains from cooperation in a network with two source-destination pairs and a relay are analyzed and the obtained results demonstrate the gains from interference forwarding in certain scenarios.

Noiseless coding of correlated information sources

TL;DR: The minimum number of bits per character R_X and R_Y needed to encode these sequences so that they can be faithfully reproduced under a variety of assumptions regarding the encoders and decoders is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-terminal communication channels

TL;DR: A coding theorem and weak converse are proved and a necessary and sufficient condition for a positive capacity is derived and upper and lower bounds on the capacity are obtained, which coincide for channels with symmetric structure.

Source coding with side information and a converse for degraded broadcast channels

TL;DR: In Section H of the paper, a characterization of the capacity region for degraded broadcast channels (DBC's) is given, which was conjectured by Bergmans and is somewhat sharper than the one obtained by Gallager.
Journal ArticleDOI

A proof of the data compression theorem of Slepian and Wolf for ergodic sources (Corresp.)

TL;DR: It is established that the Slepian-Wolf theorem is true without change for arbitrary ergodic processes \{(X_i,Y_i)\}_{i=1}^{\infty} and countably infinite alphabets.
Journal ArticleDOI

On source coding with side information at the decoder

TL;DR: The characterization of the family of rate triples (R_0,R_1, R_2) for which this system can deliver essentially perfect reproductions of X and Y and the principal result is a characterization of this family via an information-theoretic minimization.
