Fast perfect weighted resampling
We describe an algorithm for perfect weighted-random sampling of a population with time complexity O(m + n) for sampling m inputs to produce n outputs. This algorithm is an increm...

Alternatives to the discrete fourier transform
It is well-known that the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a finite length discrete-time signal samples the discrete-time Fourier transform of the same signal at equidistant p...

Non-robustness of statistics-based beamformer design in correlated MIMO channels
Recent attention on correlated multi-input multi-output systems has centered around the case of imperfect channel or statistical information at the transmitter. The focus of this ...

Turbo-coded decode-and-forward strategy resilient to relay errors
Cooperation in wireless systems can achieve spatial diversity gains as well as coverage enhancement. In the usual decode-and-forward (DF) strategy, a relay cooperates only when it...
