Coding Schemes and Converse Bounds for Secure, Multi-Access, and Multi-Antenna Coded Caching Problems
With rapid advancements in technology, there is an increase in the adoption of data-hungry applications, especially entertainment services like on-demand music and video streaming and download. The high temporal variability ... -
Coding Schemes For Distributed Subspace Computation, Distributed Storage And Local Correctability
(2017-07-24)In this thesis, three problems have been considered and new coding schemes have been devised for each of them. The first is related to distributed function computation, the second to coding for distributed storage and the ... -
Coding Schemes for Secure and Reliable DNA-Based Data Storage
In DNA-based data storage, the desired information is encoded into the quaternary sequence of synthetic DNA molecules, called oligos. We look at secure communication via information-containing oligos in the usual three-party ... -
The Combined Effect Of Reduced Feedback, Frequency-Domain Scheduling, And Multiple Antenna Techniques On The Performance Of LTE
(2014-11-21)Frequency-domain scheduling, multiple antenna techniques, and rate adaptation enable next generation orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) cellular systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) to achieve ... -
Compositionality of Object Representations in Brains and Machines
Compositionality in object vision can be defined as the principles governing the relationship between whole objects and their constituent attributes. It is known that object information falling on the retina is processed ... -
Compression for Distributed Optimization and Timely Updates
The goal of this thesis is to study the compression problems arising in distributed computing systematically. In the first part of the thesis, we study gradient compression for distributed first-order optimization. We ... -
Computational Models of Perceptual Space : From Simple Features to Complex Shapes
(2018-02-15)Dissimilarity plays a very important role in object recognition. But, finding perceptual dissimilarity between objects is non-trivial as it is not equivalent to the pixel dissimilarity between the objects (For example, two ... -
Conformal Active Sheets
(2017-12-16)Stretchable Electronics is an emerging class of electronics that allow electronics to be bent, conform, ex and stretch while still retaining its full functionality. Other than bending, existing and conforming, adding ... -
Constellation Constrained Capacity For Two-User Broadcast Channels
(2011-07-12)A Broadcast Channel is a communication path between a single source and two or more receivers or users. The source intends to communicate independent information to the users. A particular case of interest is the Gaussian ... -

Contributions on Index Coding, Coded Caching and Gradient Coding
In this thesis, we cover three major areas, namely, index coding, coded caching and gradient coding. We begin by considering unicast index coding problems where a server broadcasts coded messages over a noiseless channel, ... -
Cooperative Communication and QoS in Infrastructure WLANs
(2018-05-08)IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs operating in the infrastructure mode are extremely popular and have seen widespread deployment because of their convenience and cost efficiency. A large number of research studies have investigated ... -
Cooperative Communication In Store And Forward Wireless Networks Using Rateless Codes
(2013-08-30)In this thesis, we consider a cooperative relay-assisted communication system that uses rateless codes. When multiple relays are present, the relay with the highest channel gain to the source is the first to successfully ... -
Cooperative Communication Protocols : Diversity-Multiplexing Gain Tradeoff And Code Constructions
(2009-05-19)Cooperative relay communication is a promising means of wireless communication in which cooperation is used to create a virtual transmit array between the source and the destination, thereby providing spatial diversity for ... -
Coplanar Capacitive Coupled Probe Fed Ultra-Wideband Microstrip Antennas
(2010-12-07)Modern wireless communication systems call for ultra wideband operations to meet the continuous growth in the number of users of these systems. Since antenna is an integral part of any wireless communication system ... -
