We consider a physical-layer network coding strategy for the random-access channel, based on compute-and-forward. When packets collide, it is possible to reliably recover a linear combination of the packets at the receiver. Over many rounds of transmission ...

Lattice codes are applied to the two-user Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC) combined with a modified compute-and-forward transmitting scheme. It is shown that non-corner points on the boundary of the capacity region can be achieved by decoding two int ...
In this paper, we analyze Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access and Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access as alternative physical layer schemes for the up-link of a satellite network. Both orthogonal frequency-division multiple access a ...
Remote and virtual laboratories aim to overcome typical constraints of traditional laboratories and offer access to laboratory experiments without location and time restrictions. Additionally, the continuous growth of mobile devices’ ownership, as well as ...
The problem of successive refinement in distributed source coding and in joint source-channel coding is considered. The emphasis is placed on the case where the sources have to be recovered losslessly in the second stage. In distributed source coding, it i ...
Designing energy-efficient cognitive radio transceivers requires joint optimization of medium access control and the physical layer implementation. In this paper we show an energy efficiency optimization strategy for IEEE 802.11n compliant transceivers in ...
