Channel coding: The road to channel capacity [PDF]
Starting from Shannon's celebrated 1948 channel coding theorem, we trace the evolution of channel coding from Hamming codes to capacity-approaching codes. We focus on the contributions that have led to the most significant improvements in performance vs.

Essays on Channel Deletion and Channel Contraction [PDF]
With the advent of online, mobile, and social media channels, firms have an array of channels in their channel mix. The proliferation of channels has increased marketing costs and may be detrimental to a firm’s competitive position.

Source–Channel Diversity for Parallel Channels [PDF]
We consider transmitting a source across a pair of independent, non-ergodic channels with random states (e.g., slow fading channels) so as to minimize the average distortion. The general problem is unsolved. Hence, we focus on comparing two commonly used source and channel encoding systems which correspond to exploiting diversity either at the physical

Given the possibility of communication systems failing catastrophically, we investigate limits to communicating over channels that fail at random times. These channels are finite-state semi-Markov channels. We show that communication with arbitrarily small probability of error is not possible. Making use of results in finite blocklength channel coding,

The channel capacity of the postal channel
A mathematical model is proposed for a postal service which occasionally loses letters. A positive coding theorem and a converse is proved for this channel. The coding theorem is proved by utilizing a deterministic code (Reed-Solomon code) and bounded discrepancy decoding.

We present an algorithm that, given a channel, determines if there is a distance for it such that the maximum likelihood decoder coincides with the minimum distance decoder. We also show that any metric, up to a decoding equivalence, can be isometrically embedded into the hypercube with the Hamming metric, and thus, in terms of decoding, the Hamming ...

Clicking for friendship: social network sites and the medium of personhood
Social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook depend on familiar social resources, including language, reading/writing and established semantic constructs such as personhood, privacy and friends. However, the use of computers, the Web 2.0 platform,

The desensitization pathway of GABAA receptors, one subunit at a time
GABAA receptors mediate most inhibitory synaptic transmission in the brain. Here authors used concatemeric α1β2γ2 GABAA receptors to introduce gain-of-desensitization mutations one subunit at a time, revealing non-concerted rearrangements with a key ...
