On Codes for Private Information Retrieval and Ceph Implementation of a High-Rate Regenerating Code
(2018-07-09)Error-control codes, which are being extensively used in communication systems, have found themselves very useful in data storage as well during the past decade. This thesis deals with two types of codes for data storage, ... -
On Design and Analysis of Energy Efficient Wireless Networks with QoS
(2018-06-13)We consider optimal power allocation policies for a single server, multiuser wireless communication system. The transmission channel may experience multipath fading. We obtain very efficient, low computational complexity ... -
On Linear Codes in Projective Spaces
The projective space $\mathbb{P}_q(n)$ of order $n$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is defined as the collection of all subspaces of the ambient space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$. The Grassmannian $\mathcal{G}_q(n, k)$ is the set ... -
On Media-Based Modulation for Wireless Communications
Traditionally, symbols chosen from complex modulation alphabets such as QAM and PSK are used to convey information bits, and complex fades introduced by the channel are viewed as detrimental effects that cause amplitude ... -
On Network Coding and Network-Error Correction
(2018-04-24)The paradigm of network coding was introduced as a means to conserve bandwidth (or equivalently increase throughput) in information flow networks. Network coding makes use of the fact that unlike physical commodities, ... -
On Orthogonal Time Frequency Space Modulation for Wireless Communications
Future wireless communication systems are envisioned to support diverse requirements that include high mobility application scenarios such as high-speed trains, and vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-toinfrastructure communications. ... -
On Reduced-State Optimal Scheduling for Decentralized Medium Access Control of Wireless Data Collection Networks
In the Internet of Things (IoT), devices such as sensors and actuators will almost invariably be connected to the Internet via wireless networks. The sensor and actuator devices in such systems will be resource challenged ... -
On Some Questions Involving Prefix Codes
Let A be a finite alphabet and A be the set of all finite sequences of the elements of A. A word is any member of A . A prefix code X is a set of words satisfying the prefix property, i.e., no word in the set is a prefix ... -
On Streaming Codes, Regenerating Codes and Locality-Aided Decoding
This thesis presents results relating to the application of error-correcting codes with different aims and in different settings; to achieve low-latency communication, to improve decoding performance and to enable the ... -
On The Best-m Feedback Scheme In OFDM Systems With Correlated Subchannels
(2017-07-07)Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in next generation wireless systems provides high downlink data rates by employing frequency-domain scheduling and rate adaptation at the base station (BS). However, in ... -
On The Fourier Transform Approach To Quantum Error Control
(2013-10-07)Quantum mechanics is the physics of the very small. Quantum computers are devices that utilize the power of quantum mechanics for their computational primitives. Associated to each quantum system is an abstract space known ... -
On the Tradeoff Of Average Delay, Average Service Cost, and Average Utility for Single Server Queues with Monotone Policies
(2018-04-23)In this thesis, we study the tradeoff of average delay with average service cost and average utility for both continuous time and discrete time single server queueing models without and with admission control. The continuous ... -
Opportunistic Beamforming and Asymptotic Throughput Analysis of Hybrid Analog-Digital mmWave Multi-User MIMO Systems
In this thesis, we address the problem of large training/feedback overhead and the requirement of computationally intensive algorithms to determine the phase angles of the analog precoder for downlink data transmission ... -
Optical WDM Systems for Multi-point Distribution of Hybrid Signals in Phased Array Radar Applications
(2018-07-16)Photonics and Optical techniques have advanced recently by a great extend to play an important role in Microwave and Radar applications. Antenna array of modern active phased array radars consist of multiple low power ... -
Optimal Amplify-And-Forward Relaying For Cooperative Communications And Underlay Cognitive Radio
