Low-density parity-check (LDPC) block codes are popular forward error correction schemes
due to their capacity-approaching characteristics. However, the realization of LDPC …

This paper studies the performance of a noisy Gallager B decoder for regular LDPC codes.
We assume that the noisy decoder is subject to both transient processor errors and …

Failures become inevitable in DRAM devices, which is a major obstacle for scaling down the
density of cells in future DRAM technologies. These failures can be detected by specific …

The main focus will be on the indirect Joint Source-Channel Coding problem in which a
noisy observation of the source has to be quantized ahead of transmission over an error …

Consider the following setup: Through a joint design, multiple observations of a remote data
source shall be locally compressed before getting transmitted via several error-prone, rate …

We consider the problem of channel-optimized vector quantization (COVQ) with mutual
information as fidelity criterion. This problem is relevant in a communications context, where …

The evolution of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) into more complex forms of
organization, with additional layers, larger convolutions and increasing connections …

In this paper, we investigate the decoding performance of spatially-coupled LDPC codes in
the case of faulty memory bit-cells within the storage modules of the decoder. Our study …

This paper exploits the predominance of embedded memories in current and emerging
wireless transceivers as a means to save power via channel state aware voltage scaling …

In a broadband MIMO-OFDM wireless communication system, embedded buffering
memories occupy a large portion of the chip area and a significant amount of power …
