On the Queueing Behavior of Random Codes over a Gilbert-Elliot Erasure Channel
This paper considers the queueing performance of a system that transmits
coded data over a time-varying erasure channel. In our model, the queue length
and channel state together form a Markov chain that depends on the system
parameters. This gives a framework that allows a rigorous analysis of the queue
as a function of the code rate. Most prior work in this area either ignores
block-length (e.g., fluid models) or assumes error-free communication using
finite codes. This work enables one to determine when such assumptions provide
good, or bad, approximations of true behavior. Moreover, it offers a new
approach to optimize parameters and evaluate performance. This can be valuable
for delay-sensitive systems that employ short block lengths.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, conferenc
Families of locally separated Hamilton paths
We improve by an exponential factor the lower bound of K¨orner and Muzi for the cardinality of the largest family of Hamilton paths in a complete graph of n vertices in which the union of any two paths has maximum degree 4. The improvement is through an explicit construction while the previous bound was obtained by a greedy algorithm. We solve a similar problem for permutations up to an exponential factor
The Perfect Binary One-Error-Correcting Codes of Length 15: Part II--Properties
A complete classification of the perfect binary one-error-correcting codes of
length 15 as well as their extensions of length 16 was recently carried out in
[P. R. J. \"Osterg{\aa}rd and O. Pottonen, "The perfect binary
one-error-correcting codes of length 15: Part I--Classification," IEEE Trans.
Inform. Theory vol. 55, pp. 4657--4660, 2009]. In the current accompanying
work, the classified codes are studied in great detail, and their main
properties are tabulated. The results include the fact that 33 of the 80
Steiner triple systems of order 15 occur in such codes. Further understanding
is gained on full-rank codes via switching, as it turns out that all but two
full-rank codes can be obtained through a series of such transformations from
the Hamming code. Other topics studied include (non)systematic codes, embedded
one-error-correcting codes, and defining sets of codes. A classification of
certain mixed perfect codes is also obtained.Comment: v2: fixed two errors (extension of nonsystematic codes, table of

Convolutional compressed sensing using deterministic sequences

In contrast to random convolution, the coefficients of the underlying filter are given by the discrete Fourier transform of a deterministic sequence with good autocorrelation. Both uniform recovery and non-uniform recovery of sparse signals are investigated, based on the coherence parameter of the proposed sensing matrices. Many examples of the sequences are investigated, particularly the Frank-Zadoff-Chu (FZC) sequence, the m-sequence and the Golay sequence. A salient feature of the proposed sensing matrices is that they can not only handle sparse signals in the time domain, but also those in the frequency and/or or discrete-cosine transform (DCT) domain
Higher-order CIS codes
We introduce {\bf complementary information set codes} of higher-order. A
binary linear code of length and dimension is called a complementary
information set code of order (-CIS code for short) if it has
pairwise disjoint information sets. The duals of such codes permit to reduce
the cost of masking cryptographic algorithms against side-channel attacks. As
in the case of codes for error correction, given the length and the dimension
of a -CIS code, we look for the highest possible minimum distance. In this
paper, this new class of codes is investigated. The existence of good long CIS
codes of order is derived by a counting argument. General constructions
based on cyclic and quasi-cyclic codes and on the building up construction are
given. A formula similar to a mass formula is given. A classification of 3-CIS
codes of length is given. Nonlinear codes better than linear codes are
derived by taking binary images of -codes. A general algorithm based on
Edmonds' basis packing algorithm from matroid theory is developed with the
following property: given a binary linear code of rate it either provides
disjoint information sets or proves that the code is not -CIS. Using
this algorithm, all optimal or best known codes where and are shown to be -CIS for all
such and , except for with and with .Comment: 13 pages; 1 figur
