We present a combinatorial characterization of the Bethe entropy function of a factor graph, such a characterization being in contrast to the original, analytical, definition of th...
—Wireless sensor networks consist of unreliable and energy-constrained sensors connecting to each other wirelessly. As measured data may be lost due to sensor failures, maintaini...
Abstract—This paper studies large randomly spread directsequence code-division multiple-access system operating over a block fading multipath channel. Channel knowledge is obtain...
Network coding is a method for achieving channel capacity in networks. The key idea is to allow network routers to linearly mix packets as they traverse the network so that recipi...
