Filter and nested-lattice code design for fading MIMO channels with side-information
Linear-assignment Gel'fand-Pinsker coding (LA-GPC) is a coding technique for
channels with interference known only at the transmitter, where the known
interference is treated as side-information (SI). As a special case of LA-GPC,
dirty paper coding has been shown to be able to achieve the optimal
interference-free rate for interference channels with perfect channel state
information at the transmitter (CSIT). In the cases where only the channel
distribution information at the transmitter (CDIT) is available, LA-GPC also
has good (sometimes optimal) performance in a variety of fast and slow fading
SI channels. In this paper, we design the filters in nested-lattice based
coding to make it achieve the same rate performance as LA-GPC in multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) channels. Compared with the random Gaussian codebooks
used in previous works, our resultant coding schemes have an algebraic
structure and can be implemented in practical systems. A simulation in a
slow-fading channel is also provided, and near interference-free error
performance is obtained. The proposed coding schemes can serve as the
fundamental building blocks to achieve the promised rate performance of MIMO

Zero-Delay Joint Source-Channel Coding in the Presence of Interference Known at the Encoder
Zero-delay transmission of a Gaussian source over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered in the presence of an additive Gaussian interference signal. The mean squared error (MSE) distortion is minimized under an average power constraint assuming that the interference signal is known at the transmitter. Optimality of simple linear transmission does not hold in this setting due to the presence of the known interference signal. While the optimal encoder-decoder pair remains an open problem, various non-linear transmission schemes are proposed in this paper. In particular, interference concentration (ICO) and one-dimensional lattice (1DL) strategies, using both uniform and non-uniform quantization of the interference signal, are studied. It is shown that, in contrast to typical scalar quantization of Gaussian sources, a non-uniform quantizer, whose quantization intervals become smaller as we go further from zero, improves the performance. Given that the optimal decoder is the minimum MSE (MMSE) estimator, a necessary condition for the optimality of the encoder is derived, and the numerically optimized encoder (NOE) satisfying this condition is obtained. Based on the numerical results, it is shown that 1DL with nonuniform quantization performs closer (compared to the other schemes) to the numerically optimized encoder while requiring significantly lower complexity
Joint Wyner-Ziv/Dirty Paper coding by modulo-lattice modulation
The combination of source coding with decoder side-information (Wyner-Ziv
problem) and channel coding with encoder side-information (Gel'fand-Pinsker
problem) can be optimally solved using the separation principle. In this work
we show an alternative scheme for the quadratic-Gaussian case, which merges
source and channel coding. This scheme achieves the optimal performance by a
applying modulo-lattice modulation to the analog source. Thus it saves the
complexity of quantization and channel decoding, and remains with the task of
"shaping" only. Furthermore, for high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the scheme
approaches the optimal performance using an SNR-independent encoder, thus it is
robust to unknown SNR at the encoder.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information Theory. Presented in

Secret-key Agreement with Channel State Information at the Transmitter
We study the capacity of secret-key agreement over a wiretap channel with
state parameters. The transmitter communicates to the legitimate receiver and
the eavesdropper over a discrete memoryless wiretap channel with a memoryless
state sequence. The transmitter and the legitimate receiver generate a shared
secret key, that remains secret from the eavesdropper. No public discussion
channel is available. The state sequence is known noncausally to the
transmitter. We derive lower and upper bounds on the secret-key capacity. The
lower bound involves constructing a common state reconstruction sequence at the
legitimate terminals and binning the set of reconstruction sequences to obtain
the secret-key. For the special case of Gaussian channels with additive
interference (secret-keys from dirty paper channel) our bounds differ by 0.5
bit/symbol and coincide in the high signal-to-noise-ratio and high
interference-to-noise-ratio regimes. For the case when the legitimate receiver
is also revealed the state sequence, we establish that our lower bound achieves
the the secret-key capacity. In addition, for this special case, we also
propose another scheme that attains the capacity and requires only causal side
information at the transmitter and the receiver.Comment: 10 Pages, Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and
