Power Line Communications (PLC) is a promising emerging technology, which has attracted
much attention due to the wide availability of power distribution lines. This book provides a …

This article's goal is to provide an in-depth understanding of the principles of FSMC
modeling of fading channels with its applications in wireless communication systems. While …

Digital communications over channels impaired by impulse noise are addressed. We adopt
a two-state Markov model that allows to describe the typical bursty nature of the impulse …

In this paper, we present a methodology to obtain a channel description tailored on
performance evaluation for incremental redundancy hybrid automatic repeat request …

Although low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes in modern communication standards have
been extensively studied over a memoryless channel, their burst error correction capacity in …

The common technique to perform decoding in channels with memory is to use interleaving,
which increases both complexity and delay at the receiver. To overcome these limitations …

Satellite and space communication systems have received a lot of attention as crucial
transmission frameworks in recent years. In these systems, the signal is mostly degraded by …

LDPC codes are analyzed and optimized for a noncoherent block fading channel in which
there is correlation between the blocks. This extends related work in the literature which …

Some information-hiding schemes are scrutinized in terms of their cryptographic secrecy.
The schemes under study appeal to the so-called matrix embedding strategy, designed to …

Iterative decoding based on the sum-product algorithm (SPA) is examined for sending low-
density parity check (LDPC) codes over a discrete nonbinary queue-based Markovian burst …
