In a relay channel, between the sender X and the the receiver Y lies at least one relay. Generally, the relay can both transmit its own information and help forwarding other sources’ information. This summary considers the latter case, i.e., the relay intends solely to help the receiver. The relay and the transmitter cooperate to resolve the receiver’s uncertainty. Due to the presence of relay,...

A new method of combined source-channel coding for the scalar quantisation of a discrete memoryless source is presented that takes advantage of the channel soft output values produced by the demodulator. The case of transmitting a memoryless Gaussian source using binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation over over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with and without Rayleigh fadin...

This work concerns the behavior of “good” (capacity achieving) codes in several multi-user settings in the Gaussian regime, in terms of their minimum mean-square error (MMSE) behavior. The settings investigated in this context include the Gaussian wiretap channel, the Gaussian broadcast channel (BC) and the Gaussian BC with confidential messages (BCC). In particular this work addresses the effe...

 Abstract—This paper presents a short-channel subthreshold current model for the double gate (DG) MOSFET having Gaussian doping profile in the vertical direction of the channel. The present model is based on the assumption that diffusion is the dominant carrier transportation mechanism in the subthreshold regime of device operation. The effects of channel length and channel doping on subthresh...

Lattice coding and decoding have been shown to achieve the capacity of the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. This was accomplished using a minimum mean-square error scaling and randomization to transform the AWGN channel into a modulo-lattice additive noise channel of the same capacity. It has been further shown that when operating at rates below capacity but above the critical rate...

We propose the adaptive multicarrier quadrature division–multiuser quadrature allocation (AMQD-MQA) multiple access technique for continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD). The MQA scheme is based on the AMQD modulation, which granulates the inputs of the users into Gaussian subcarrier continuous-variables (CVs). The subcarrier coherent states formulate Gaussian sub-channels from the...

We study a deterministic approximation of the two-user multiple access wiretap channel. This approximation enables results beyond the recently shown 2 3 secure degrees of freedom (s.d.o.f.) for the Gaussian multiple access channel. While the s.d.o.f. were obtained by real interference alignment, our approach uses signal-scale alignment. We show an achievable scheme which is independent of the r...
