Automatic repeat request (ARQ) schemes, and in particular hybrid-ARQ (HARQ) schemes,
which jointly adopt forward error correction (FEC) and ARQ, are essential to provide reliable …

Building on the ubiquity of electric power infrastructure, power line communications (PLC)
has been successfully used in diverse application scenarios, including the smart grid and in …

This letter studies the power-limited throughput of a communication system utilizing
incremental redundancy (INR) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ). We use some …

Nowadays energy crisis and global warming problems are hanging over everyone's head,
urging much research work on energy saving. In the ICT industry, which is becoming a major …

Source coding with correlated decoder side information is considered. We impose the
practical constraint that the encoder be unaware of even the statistical dependencies …

In this article we argue that the retail transnational corporation (TNC) is an entity that merits
urgent theoretical and empirical investigation from economic geographers. Using recent …

Spinal codes are a new class of rateless codes that enable wireless networks to cope with
time-varying channel conditions in a natural way, without requiring any explicit bit rate …

This paper proposes protograph-based Raptor-like (PBRL) codes as a class of rate-
compatible low-density parity-check codes for binary-input AWGN channels. As with the …

This paper describes an efficient implementation of binning for decode-and-forward (DF) in
relay channels using low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. Bilayer LDPC codes are …

This paper studies the performance of hybrid-ARQ (automatic repeat request) in Rayleigh
block-fading channels. The long-term average transmitted rate is analyzed in a fast-fading …
