— Cooperation amongst heterogeneous mobile radio systems will be an indispensable feature of ‘beyond 3G’. One key mechanism thereby serving as enabling technique for system i...
Writing code that manipulates bit streams is a painful and error-prone programming task, often performed via bit twiddling techniques such as explicit bit shifts and bit masks in p...
Automatic-repeat request (ARQ) protocols are used to provide reliable communication in wireless networks. In this paper the throughput of the basic selective-repeat (SR) ARQ in bl...
Abstract—The relay channel with private messages (RCPM) is a generalized relay channel model where in addition to the traditional communication from source to destination (assist...
Long-running applications such as network services require continuous uptime but also frequent changes to the software. To avoid downtime for software maintenance, applications mu...
