An Inertial Parallel and Asynchronous Forward-Backward Iteration for Distributed Convex Optimization

Colin Neil Jones, Georgios Stathopoulos

Two characteristics that make convex decomposition algorithms attractive are simplicity of operations and generation of parallelizable structures. In principle, these schemes require that all coordinates update at the same time, i.e., they are synchronous ...

Performance Analysis of MAC for Power-Line Communications

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou

We investigate the IEEE 1901 MAC protocol, the dominant protocol for high data rate power-line communications. 1901 employs a CSMA/CA mechanism similar to – but much more complex than – the backoff mechanism of 802.11. Because of this extra complexity, and ...

Fairness of MAC protocols: IEEE 1901 vs. 802.11

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Christina Vlachou

The MAC layer of the IEEE 1901 standard for power line communications employs a CSMA/CA method similar to, but more complex than, this of IEEE 802.11 for wireless communications. The differences between these protocols raise questions such as which one per ...

Layered Detection and Decoding in MIMO Wireless Systems

Andreas Peter Burg, Nicholas Alexander Preyss, Christoph Studer

Iterative detection and decoding (IDD) in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems is known to achieve near channel capacity. The high computational complexity of IDD, however, poses signiﬁcant challenges for practical implementations (in ter ...
