Channel Coding
1 Channel Coding: The Road to Channel Capacity Daniel J. Costello, Jr., Fellow, IEEE, and G. David Forney, Jr., Fellow, IEEE Submitted to the Proceedings of the IEEE First revision, November 2006 Abstract 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. complexity for practical applications, particularly on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. We discuss algebraic block codes, and why they did not prove to be the way to get to the Shannon limit. We trace the antecedents of today’s capacity-approaching codes: convolutional codes, concatenated codes, and other probabilistic coding schemes. Finally, we sketch some of the practical applications of these codes. Index Terms Channel coding, algebraic block codes, convolutional codes, concatenated codes, turbo codes, low-density parity- check codes, codes on graphs. I. INTRODUCTION The field of channel coding started with Claude Shannon’s 1948 landmark paper [1]. For the next half century, its central objective was to find practical coding schemes that could approach channel capacity (hereafter called “the Shannon limit”) on well-understood channels such as the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. This goal proved to be challenging, but not impossible. In the past decade, with the advent of turbo codes and the rebirth of low-density parity-check codes, it has finally been achieved, at least in many cases of practical interest. As Bob McEliece observed in his 2004 Shannon Lecture [2], the extraordinary efforts that were required to achieve this objective may not be fully appreciated by future historians. -

University of California Los Angeles Robust Communication and Optimization over Dynamic Networks A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering by Can Karakus 2018 c Copyright by Can Karakus 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Robust Communication and Optimization over Dynamic Networks by Can Karakus Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Suhas N. Diggavi, Chair Many types of communication and computation networks arising in modern systems have fundamentally dynamic, time-varying, and ultimately unreliably available resources. Specifi- cally, in wireless communication networks, such unreliability may manifest itself as variability in channel conditions, intermittent availability of undedicated resources (such as unlicensed spectrum), or collisions due to multiple-access. In distributed computing, and specifically in large-scale distributed optimization and machine learning, this phenomenon manifests itself in the form of communication bottlenecks, straggling or failed nodes, or running background processes which hamper or slow down the computational task. In this thesis, we develop information-theoretically-motivated approaches that make progress towards building robust and reliable communication and computation networks built upon unreliable resources. In the first part of the thesis, we focus on three problems in wireless networks which involve opportunistically harnessing time-varying resources while providing theoretical per- formance guarantees. First, we show that in full-duplex uplink-downlink cellular networks, a simple, low-overhead user scheduling scheme that exploits the variations in channel con- ditions can be used to optimally mitigate inter-user interference in the many-user regime. Next, we consider the use of intermittently available links over unlicensed spectral bands to enhance communication over the licensed cellular band. -
