Abstract
The index coding problem aims to optimise broadcast communication by exploring side information available at the receivers. In this work, we investigate the use of Construction $\pi _{A}$ lattices over the ring of integers $\mathbb {Z}$ for index coding and establish algebraic conditions on the code generators to guarantee uniform side information gain. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through theoretical analysis and explicit code design examples.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Communications Letters publishes short papers in a rapid publication cycle on advances in the state-of-the-art of communication over different media and channels including wire, underground, waveguide, optical fiber, and storage channels. Both theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, and analyses) and practical contributions (including system experiments and prototypes, and new applications) are encouraged. This journal focuses on the physical layer and the link layer of communication systems.
