Motivated by the recently developed hybrid coding scheme for joint source-channel coding,
this paper proposes a new coding scheme for noisy relay networks. The proposed coding …

In this paper, we study the three-node Decode-and-Forward (D&F) relay network subject to
random and burst packet erasures. The source wishes to transmit an infinite stream of …

Infrastructure-based wireless communications systems as well as ad hoc networks
experience a growing importance in present-day telecommunications. An increased density …

We evaluate the information-theoretic achievable rates of Quantize-Map-and-Forward (QMF)
relaying schemes over Gaussian N-relay diamond networks. Focusing on vector Gaussian …

A general class of wireless relay networks with a single source-destination pair is
considered. Intermediate nodes in the network employ an amplify-and-forward scheme to …

In the simplest relaying strategy, a network node amplifies and forwards a received signal
over a wireless channel. Multihop amplify-and-forward allows for a (noisy) linear …

An achievable rate region based on Shannon's inner bound is given for the two-way relay
channel. The relaying scheme operates on noisy received signals and generates new …

In this paper, we present results on the equivalence of some coding strategies for the
general relay channel. Cover & El Gamal described two basic coding strategies for the relay …

We consider compress-and-forward-based transmission strategies for the multiple-access
relay channel. In particular, we study the impact of the capacity on the relay-destination link …

In this paper, we study the capacity of the diamond channel. We focus on the special case
where the channel between the source node and the two relay nodes are two separate links …
