The discrete memoryless Z-Channel with a confidential message and a cooperative receiver (DM-ZC-CMCR) is considered. A noiseless one-sided rate-limited cooperation link exists between the two receivers. The secrecy level is measured by the equivocation rate. An outer bound on the secrecy-capacity-region DM-ZC-CMCR is derived. An achievable secrecy-rate region is proposed. The secrecy-sum capacity...
This paper presents a comprehensive cross-layer analysis framework on the performance of transmission control protocol (TCP) over free-space optical (FSO) links, which employ the automatic repeat request (ARQ) and adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) schemes. From the framework, we quantify the impacts of different parameters/settings of ARQ, AMC and FSO links on TCP throughput performance. We also...
In this paper, we propose a low complexity algorithm to separate collided RFID signals. By carefully analyzing the collided signals when two tags with the same bit durations respond to a reader simultaneously, we observed that the individual amplitudes of each tag appear in pairs and the two tags' information bits are different, and regular RFID signals with larger amplitudes appear if the two tags'...
Network coding (NC) enables us to mix two or more packets into a single coded packet at relay nodes and improve performances in wireless networks. Intra-session sliding window network coding is used at the source nodes and inter-session network coding is employed at the relay node to combine the recovered source packets of source nodes. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the network-coded...
In spatial information networks (SIN), communication links are suffered by periodic time-varying channel noise because of the periodic motion orbit of the space nodes and planets. Moveover, SIN communications may have a probability to fail at random times, such as severe rain attenuation on Ka-band downlinks, or solar scintillation during the superior/inferior solar conjunction. In this paper, we...
The contribution of this paper is implementing a high throughput LDPC codec in FPGA for quantum key distribution (QKD) system. By software, the throughput of error correction in QKD system via LDPC codec could only reach 1.8Mbps, which is not satisfactory for high speed QKD systems. Thus, it is desirable that LDPC error correction is realized in FPGA to increase the throughput. LDPC codec is implemented...
This paper provide the performance comparison of the IEEE 802.11n and IEEE 802.11ac Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). The IEEE 802.11ac protocol currently has been used widely. Network Simulator (NS-3) is used to simulate it. The advantages of the research using Network Simulator are shorter time to explore, low cost and flexibility on scenario developed. Our project analyzes and compares the 802...
Priority encoders and arbiters usually drive multiplexers (muxes). Latency optimization of priority encoders and multiplexer trees has usually been handled separately in the literature. However, in some applications with circular data dependencies, the combined latency of the arbiter and muxing needs to be optimized. Moreover, there is an ever growing need for throughput. This requires switches that...
High-speed serial data communication is now very popular for connecting various resources in high-performance computing systems. In such high-speed serial links, a line coding is important to control the run length (RL) and the running disparity (RD), because a large run length causes insufficient transitions on data-links that make it difficult to perform reliable clock and data recovery (CDR), and...
This paper presents a polar code design for block fading channels when no channel state information is available at the transmitter, which involves that the frozen bits cannot be changed dynamically with the fading realizations. An outer parallel code is concatenated with an inner polarization kernel that changes the properties of the block fading channel. The rate-splitting between the parallel outer...
In an unreliable cluster-based, broadcast-oriented vehicular network setting, we investigate the transmission reliability and throughput performance of random network coding (RNC) as a function of the packet generate rate. Our proposed model consists of a source vehicle broadcasting packets to a set of receivers (i.e. one-to-many) over independent broadcast erasure channels. The source vehicle performs...
Several random access (RA) techniques have been proposed recently for the satellite return link. The main objective of these techniques is to resolve packets collisions in order to enhance the limited throughput of traditional RA schemes. In this context, Multi-Replica Decoding using Correlation based Localisation (MARSALA) has been introduced and has shown good performance with DVB-RCS2 coding scheme...
We present ErasureBench, an open-source framework to test and benchmark erasure coding implementations for distributed storage systems under realistic conditions. ErasureBench automatically instantiates and scales a cluster of storage nodes, and can seamlessly leverage existing failure traces. As a first example, we use ErasureBench to compare three coding implementations: a (10,4) Reed-Solomon (RS)...
Admission control is a fundamental mechanism used for Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning by restricting the access to the network resources. In this paper, we consider the application of superposition coding to increase the system capacity through multiuser diversity exploitation. We propose a joint great fairness admission control and superposition coding scheme to provide a good tradeoff between...
Recently, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has gained more attention as a candidate multiple access scheme for future radio access. A major reason for this is that NOMA has the potential to achieve a more favorable tradeoff between system efficiency and user fairness than orthogonal multiple access (OMA), which is adopted in the 4th generation mobile communication systems such as LTE and LTE-Advanced...
Molecular communication is a new framework in data communication based on biological mechanisms and systems. In molecular communication system, the transmitter sends information by transmitting certain chemical molecules called data molecules and after propagation of the molecules in the environment they are collected and decoded by the receiver. Due to randomness in the movement of the molecules,...
Network coding can significantly enhance throughput and reliability in loss prone wireless networks. Adapting network coding redundancy is critical, since over-redundancy wastes network resources and hurts performance and under-estimated redundancy prevents decoding at destination. In this paper, we study the tradeoff between application tolerated loss rate and network overhead introduced by network...
In this paper, we propose a selective physical layer network coding (SPNC) scheme in two-way relay channel (TWRC) for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation over Rayleigh fading channels. Physical layer network coding (PNC) shows average throughput gain over traditional relaying in two-way relay systems, but not in all channel conditions PNC performs better than traditional relaying. The key...
Physical layer processing for 5G wireless is expected to operate at a very high-throughput with very low latency. Developing a channel coding system based on Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) for evolving requirements necessitates extensive experimentation involving undesirably long development cycles. We demonstrate the use of a High-level Synthesis (HLS) compiler in LabVIEW Communications to...
