Abstract— There is a well-known error-floor phenomenon associated with iterative LDPC decoders which has delayed the use of LDPC codes in certain communication and storage syste...
Abstract—In this paper, we study how to optimize the transmission decisions of nodes aimed at supporting mission-critical applications, such as surveillance, security monitoring,...
Abstract—Random linear network coding can be used in peerto-peer networks to increase the efficiency of content distribution and distributed storage. However, these systems are ...
