On the Implementation Complexity of Digital Full-Duplex Self-Interference Cancellation

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Andreas Toftegaard Kristensen

In-band full-duplex systems promise to further increase the throughput of wireless systems, by simultaneously transmitting and receiving on the same frequency band. However, concurrent transmission generates a strong self-interference signal at the receive ...

Sampling and Reconstruction of Bandlimited Signals with Multi-Channel Time Encoding

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Karen Adam

Sampling is classically performed by recording the amplitude of the input at given time instants; however, sampling and reconstructing a signal using multiple devices in parallel becomes a more difficult problem to solve when the devices have an unknown sh ...

Compute–Forward Multiple Access (CFMA): Practical Implementations

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Adriano Pastore, Jingge Zhu, Erixhen Sula, Sung Hoon Lim

We present a practical strategy that aims to attain rate points on the dominant face of the multiple access channel capacity using a standard low complexity decoder. This technique is built upon recent theoretical developments of Zhu and Gastpar on compute ...

Communication Versus Computation: Duality for Multiple-Access Channels and Source Coding

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jingge Zhu, Sung Hoon Lim

Computation codes in network information theory are designed for scenarios where the decoder is not interested in recovering the information sources themselves, but only a function thereof. Körner and Marton showed for distributed source coding (DSC) that ...

A Time-Division Multiplexing Signaling Scheme for Low-Power Multi-Drop Memory Links

Yusuf Leblebici, Gain Kim, Kiarash Gharibdoust, Chen Cao

A time-division multiplexing (TDM) digital channel coding scheme for wireline multi-drop interfaces has been proposed. Shaping the TX spectrum to avoid channel frequency notches, the proposed digital TDM signaling reduces inter-symbol interference (ISI) an ...

On the Duality between Multiple-Access Codes and Computation Codes

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jingge Zhu, Sung Hoon Lim

For a two-user Gaussian multiple access channel, computation codes are designed for the scenarios where the decoder is not interested in decoding the two codewords, but only the sum of them. It has been observed that good computation codes should possess s ...
