Shannon's determination of the capacity of the linear Gaussian channel has posed a
magnificent challenge to succeeding generations of researchers. This paper surveys how …

This paper deals with 2/sup l/-ary transmission using multilevel coding (MLC) and multistage
decoding (MSD). The known result that MLC and MSD suffice to approach capacity if the …

We apply coset codes to adaptive modulation in fading channels. Adaptive modulation is a
powerful technique to improve the energy efficiency and increase the data rate over a fading …

Within the wide range of issues related to 4G wireless networks, due to the scope of the
ISSTA conference, in this presentation we highlight some segments of wireless networks …

We introduce a general adaptive coding scheme for Nakagami multipath fading channels.
An instance of the coding scheme utilizes a set of 2L-dimensional (2L-D) trellis codes …

In this tutorial paper, we first review the main information-theoretic results on channels
affected by a time-varying phase noise. The main MAP symbol detection algorithms to be …

In this paper, the basic theory of interleavers is revisited in a semi-tutorial manner, and
extended to encompass noncausal interleavers. The parameters that characterize the …

Communication over the noncoherent additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is
considered, where the transmitted signal undergoes a phase rotation, unknown to the …

We consider rotationally invariant (RI) trellis-coded modulations (TCMs) transmitted over
channels affected by phase noise. To describe the main ideas of this paper, we first …

The well-known uniform error property for signal constellations and codes is extended to
encompass information bits. We introduce a class of binary labelings for signal …
