Communication and computation are often viewed as separate tasks. This approach is very
effective from the perspective of engineering as isolated optimizations can be performed …

The concept of physical-layer network coding (PNC) was proposed in 2006 for application in
wireless networks. Since then it has developed into a subfield of network coding with wide …

The fifth generation of cellular communication systems is foreseen to enable a multitude of
new applications and use cases with very different requirements. A new 5G multi-service air …

In future Internet-of-Things networks, sensors or even access points can be mounted on
ground/aerial vehicles for smart-city surveillance or environment monitoring. For such high …

Interference is usually viewed as an obstacle to communication in wireless networks. This
paper proposes a new strategy, compute-and-forward, that exploits interference to obtain …

The fourth generation (4G) mobile communication systems are offering service worldwide
steadily. Although 4G systems could be loaded with much more services and data than …

As a subfield of network coding, PNC can effectively enhance the throughput of wireless
networks by mapping superimposed signals at the receiver to other forms of user messages …

Cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) employs a large number of
distributed access points (APs) to serve a small number of user equipments (UEs) via the …

The problem of designing physical-layer network coding (PNC) schemes via nested lattices
is considered. Building on the compute-and-forward (C&F) relaying strategy of Nazer and …

As a revolution in networking, the Internet of Things (IoT) aims at automating the operations
of our societies by connecting and leveraging an enormous number of distributed devices …
