Research In Information Theory
This paper presents a comprehensive framework for holographic multiantenna communication, a paradigm that integrates both wide apertures and closely spaced antennas relative to the wavelength. The presented framework is physically grounded, enabling information-theoretic analyses that inherently incorporate correlation and mutual coupling among the antennas. This establishes the combined effects of correlation and coupling on the information-theoretic performance limits across SNR levels.
Locally recoverable codes (LRCs) with locality parameter r can recover any erased code symbol by accessing r other code symbols. This local recovery property is of great interest in large-scale distributed classical data storage systems as it leads to efficient repair of failed nodes. A well-known class of optimal (classical) LRCs are subcodes of Reed-Solomon codes constructed using a special type of polynomials called good polynomials.
