Trained algorithms uniformly outperform their blind counterparts only if they incorporate knowledge of the amplitude of the user of interest. Decision directed versions of such algorithms are shown to be equally efficient as their trained prototypes and significantly better than the blind versions.","PeriodicalId":433761,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (IEEE Cat.

Every receiver in the family is a function of the channel correlation matrix of a simple form. It is proved that conditioned on almost all spreading codes, the output decision statistic of such a receiver converges to a Gaussian law in distribution as the system size goes to infinity. This set of receivers encompasses a matched filter, MMSE receiver, parallel interference cancelers, and many other linear receivers of interest. The normality principle solidifies the importance of the signal-to-interference ratio in the many-user analysis of linear multiuser detectors.","PeriodicalId":433761,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (IEEE Cat.

The information sources are allowed to be encoded within the network, and they are reconstructed by the decoders, where each decoder reconstructs a certain subset of the information sources almost perfectly. We first investigate network coding on acyclic networks in which the reconstruction requirements are arbitrary but the information sources are independent. Inner and outer bounds on the admissible coding rate region are obtained in terms of /spl Gamma/*/sub n/, which is a fundamental region in the entropy space defined by Yeung (1997). Our work extends the work by Yeung and Zhang (1999) on distributed source coding. In addition, we prove that the outer bound for the acyclic single-source single-sink network is tight. We also investigate the multi-source multi-sink network with independent discrete memoryless channels. The admissibility of such a network is characterized under the multicasting requirements that each sink is required to recover all the information sources, which may be correlated.","PeriodicalId":433761,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (IEEE Cat.

The space-time autocoding effect implies that arbitrarily reliable communication is possible within a single coherence interval in Rayleigh flat fading as the symbol-duration of the coherence interval and the number of transmit antennas grow simultaneously. For relatively short (e.g., 16-symbol) coherence intervals, a codebook of isotropically random unitary space-time signals theoretically supports transmission rates that are a significant fraction of autocapacity with an extremely low probability of error. However a constellation of the required size (typically L=2/sup 80/) is impossible to generate and store, and due to lack of structure there is little hope of finding a fast decoding scheme. We propose a random, but highly structured, constellation that is completely specified by log/sub 2/ L independent isotropically distributed unitary matrices. The distinguishing property of this construction is that any two signals in the constellation are pairwise statistically independent and isotropically distributed. Thus, the pairwise probability of error, and hence the union bound on the block probability of error, of the structured constellation is identical to that of a fully random constellation of independent signals.","PeriodicalId":433761,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (IEEE Cat.

Substantial energy-savings resulting from these protocols can lead to reduced battery drain, longer network lifetime, and improved network performance in terms of, e.g., capacity.","PeriodicalId":433761,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 2001 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (IEEE Cat.
