A variable-length code is a fix-free code if no codeword is a prefix or a suffix of any other codeword. In a fix-free code any finite sequence of codewords can be decoded in both d...
— This paper presents new lower and upper bounds for the compression rate of binary prefix codes optimized over memoryless sources according to various nonlinear codeword length...
For a linear code , the stopping redundancy of is defined as the minimum number of check nodes in a Tanner graph T for such that the size of the smallest stopping set in T is equal...
Let ( ) denote the maximum possible number of codewords in a binary code of length and minimum Hamming distance . For large values of , the best known upper bound, for fixed , is t...
In a previous paper we derived an upper bound on the redundancy of an arithmetic-type encoder for a memoryless source, designed to meet a finite endto-end strict delay constraint....
