For several years, the completion time and the decoding delay problems in instantly decodable network coding (IDNC) were considered separately and were thought to act completely against each other. Recently, some works have aimed to balance the effects of these two important IDNC metrics, but none of them studied a further optimization of one by controlling the other. This paper investigates the effect...
In this paper, we consider the problem of minimizing the maximum broadcast decoding delay experienced by all the receivers of generalized instantly decodable network coding (IDNC). Unlike the sum decoding delay, the maximum decoding delay as a definition of delay for IDNC allows a more equitable distribution of the delays between the different receivers and thus a better Quality of Service (QoS)....
Due to rapid and continuous technology scaling, faults in semiconductor memories (and ICs in general) are becoming pervasive and weak rather than strong, a weak fault is a fault that escape the test program (because it does not cause an error/system failure). However, multiple weak faults may cause an error during the application. Components with weak faults which fail at board and system level are...
This paper presents a novel approach for the design and implementation of a simulation platform for evaluating LDPC codes performance. The existing LDPC code simulation tools consume very long time in evaluating the performance of a specific code design. This is due to the intensive number of required computations. This problem is overcome by developing a parallel protocol to distribute the computations...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the modulation scheme of choice for digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H), which is required to operate under high mobility conditions resulting in significant Inter-carrier Interference (ICI). To mitigate ICI, several cancellation schemes have been proposed but they require reliable channel information at the receiver which is quite challenging...
A new construction of a full-diversity full-rate space-time block code (FDFR-STBC) is presented in this paper. The design is for 2 transmit antennas and 2 time slots. The code outperforms the previous FDFR-STBC codes in [3], [4], [5], [6] for 1 receive antenna. We reduce the decoding complexity by exploiting the algebraic structure of the code and using the hybrid maximum-likelihood interference cancellation...
This paper studies efficient complex valued matrix manipulations for multi-user STBC-MIMO decoding. A novel method called Alamouti blockwise analytical matrix inversion (ABAMI) is proposed for the inversion of large complex matrices that are based on Alamouti sub-blocks. Another method using a variant of Givens rotation is proposed for fast QR decomposition of this kind of matrices. Our solutions...
