Interactive Channel Capacity Revisited
We provide the first capacity approaching coding schemes that robustly
simulate any interactive protocol over an adversarial channel that corrupts any
fraction of the transmitted symbols. Our coding schemes achieve a
communication rate of over any
adversarial channel. This can be improved to for
random, oblivious, and computationally bounded channels, or if parties have
shared randomness unknown to the channel.
Surprisingly, these rates exceed the interactive channel capacity bound
which [Kol and Raz; STOC'13] recently proved for random errors. We conjecture
and to be the optimal rates for their respective settings
and therefore to capture the interactive channel capacity for random and
adversarial errors.
In addition to being very communication efficient, our randomized coding
schemes have multiple other advantages. They are computationally efficient,
extremely natural, and significantly simpler than prior (non-capacity
approaching) schemes. In particular, our protocols do not employ any coding but
allow the original protocol to be performed as-is, interspersed only by short
exchanges of hash values. When hash values do not match, the parties backtrack.
Our approach is, as we feel, by far the simplest and most natural explanation
for why and how robust interactive communication in a noisy environment is
possible
Asynchronous multiple-access channel capacity
The capacity region for the discrete memoryless multiple-access channel without time synchronization at the transmitters and receivers is shown to be the same as the known capacity region for the ordinary multiple-access channel. The proof utilizes time sharing of two optimal codes for the ordinary multiple-access channel and uses maximum likelihood decoding over shifts of the hypothesized transmitter words
Remarks on entanglement assisted classical capacity
The property of the optimal signal ensembles of entanglement assisted channel
capacity is studied. A relationship between entanglement assisted channel
capacity and one-shot capacity of unassisted channel is obtained. The data
processing inequalities, convexity and additivity of the entanglement assisted
channel capacity are reformulated by simple methods.Comment: Revtex, 5 page
Pedestrians effects on indoor MIMO-OFDM channel capacity
Temporal variations caused by pedestrian movement can significantly affect the channel capacity of indoor MIMOOFDM wireless systems. This paper compares systematic measurements of MIMO-OFDM channel capacity in presence of pedestrians with predicted MIMO-OFDM channel capacity values using geometric optics-based ray tracing techniques. Capacity results are presented for a single room environment using 5.2 GHz with 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 arrays as well as a 2.45 GHz narrowband 8x8 MIMO array. The analysis shows an increase of up to 2 b/s/Hz on instant channel capacity with up to 3 pedestrians. There is an increase of up to 1 b/s/Hz in the average capacity of the 4x4 MIMO-OFDM channel when the number of pedestrians goes from 1 to 3. Additionally, an increment of up to 2.5 b/s/Hz in MIMO-OFDM channel capacity was measured for a 4x4 array compared to a 2x2 array in presence of pedestrians. Channel capacity values derived from this analysis are important in terms of understanding the limitations and possibilities for MIMO-OFDM systems in indoor populated environments
Channel Capacity of High-speed Powerline Communication in Vehicles
Powerline Communication (PLC) Systems intents to use the mains network in vehicles for high-speed datatransmission. Carrier frequencies in the range of MHz are required to establish data rates of some megabits per second.In this paper, typical reference channels extracted from channel measurements are presented and computation results oftheir capacities according to Shannon\u27s theorem are presented. Furthermore, the effect of limitations of frequencyrange and power spectral density of transmitted signal on achievable capacity is investigated. This paper outlines anassessment for theoretical channel capacity and achievable data rates of vehicular PLC transmission schemes. Finally,EMC (Electromagnetics Compatibility) constraint according to CISPR 25 (Comite International Special desPerturbations Radioelectrique - The International Special Committee on Radio Interference) is deeply considered
Simple test for quantum channel capacity
Basing on states and channels isomorphism we point out that semidefinite
programming can be used as a quick test for nonzero one-way quantum channel
capacity. This can be achieved by search of symmetric extensions of states
isomorphic to a given quantum channel. With this method we provide examples of
quantum channels that can lead to high entanglement transmission but still have
zero one-way capacity, in particular, regions of symmetric extendibility for
isotropic states in arbitrary dimensions are presented. Further we derive {\it
a new entanglement parameter} based on (normalised) relative entropy distance
to the set of states that have symmetric extensions and show explicitly the
symmetric extension of isotropic states being the nearest to singlets in the
set of symmetrically extendible states. The suitable regularisation of the
parameter provides a new upper bound on one-way distillable entanglement.Comment: 6 pages, no figures, RevTeX4. Signifficantly corrected version. Claim

Tema Con Variazioni: Quantum Channel Capacity
Channel capacity describes the size of the nearly ideal channels, which can
be obtained from many uses of a given channel, using an optimal error
correcting code. In this paper we collect and compare minor and major
variations in the mathematically precise statements of this idea which have
been put forward in the literature. We show that all the variations considered
lead to equivalent capacity definitions. In particular, it makes no difference
whether one requires mean or maximal errors to go to zero, and it makes no
difference whether errors are required to vanish for any sequence of block
sizes compatible with the rate, or only for one infinite sequence.Comment: 32 pages, uses iopart.cl
Electromagnetic channel capacity for practical purposes
We give analytic upper bounds to the channel capacity C for transmission of
classical information in electromagnetic channels (bosonic channels with
thermal noise). In the practically relevant regimes of high noise and low
transmissivity, by comparison with know lower bounds on C, our inequalities
determine the value of the capacity up to corrections which are irrelevant for
all practical purposes. Examples of such channels are radio communication,
infrared or visible-wavelength free space channels. We also provide bounds to
active channels that include amplification.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures. NB: the capacity bounds are constructed by
generalizing to the multi-mode case the minimum-output entropy bounds of
