In this paper, a general algorithm is proposed for rate analysis and code design of linear index coding problems. Specifically a solution for minimum rank matrix completion problem over finite fields representing the linear index coding problem is devised in order to find the optimum transmission rate given vector length and size of the field. The new approach can be applied to both scalar and vector linear index coding.

We study the fundamental problem of index coding under an additional privacy constraint that requires each receiver to learn nothing more about the collection of messages beyond its demanded messages from the server and what is available to it as sid e information. To enable such private communication, we allow the use of a collection of independent secret keys, each of which is shared amongst a subset of users and is known to the server. The goal is to study properties of the key access structures which make the problem feasible and then design encoding and decoding schemes efficient in the size of the server transmission as well as the sizes of the secret keys. We call this the private index coding problem. We begin by characterizing the key access structures that make private index coding feasible. We also give conditions to check if a given linear scheme is a valid private index code. For up to three users, we characterize the rate region of feasible server transmission and key rates, and show that all feasible rates can be achieved using scalar linear coding and time sharing; we also show that scalar linear codes are sub-optimal for four receivers. The outer bounds used in the case of three users are extended to arbitrary number of users and seen as a generalized version of the well-known polymatroidal bounds for the standard non-private index coding. We also show that the presence of common randomness and private randomness does not change the rate region. Furthermore, we study the case where no keys are shared among the users and provide some necessary and sufficient conditions for feasibility in this setting under a weaker notion of privacy. If the server has the ability to multicast to any subset of users, we demonstrate how this flexibility can be used to provide privacy and characterize the minimum number of server multicasts required.
In a typical MIMO radar scenario, transmit nodes transmit orthogonal waveforms, while each receive node performs matched filtering with the known set of transmit waveforms, and forwards the results to the fusion center. Based on the data it receives from multiple antennas, the fusion center formulates a matrix, which, in conjunction with standard array processing schemes, such as MUSIC, leads to target detection and parameter estimation. In MIMO radars with compressive sensing (MIMO-CS), the data matrix is formulated by each receive node forwarding a small number of compressively obtained samples. In this paper, it is shown that under certain conditions, in both sampling cases, the data matrix at the fusion center is low-rank, and thus can be recovered based on knowledge of a small subset of its entries via matrix completion (MC) techniques. Leveraging the low-rank property of that matrix, we propose a new MIMO radar approach, termed, MIMO-MC radar, in which each receive node either performs matched filtering with a small number of randomly selected dictionary waveforms or obtains sub-Nyquist samples of the received signal at random sampling instants, and forwards the results to a fusion center. Based on the received samples, and with knowledge of the sampling scheme, the fusion center partially fills the data matrix and subsequently applies MC techniques to estimate the full matrix. MIMO-MC radars share the advantages of the recently proposed MIMO-CS radars, i.e., high resolution with reduced amounts of data, but unlike MIMO-CS radars do not require grid discretization. The MIMO-MC radar concept is illustrated through a linear uniform array configuration, and its target estimation performance is demonstrated via simulations.
Index coding, a source coding problem over broadcast channels, has been a subject of both theoretical and practical interest since its introduction (by Birk and Kol, 1998). In short, the problem can be defined as follows: there is an input $textbf{x} triangleq (textbf{x}_1, dots, textbf{x}_n)$, a set of $n$ clients who each desire a single symbol $textbf{x}_i$ of the input, and a broadcaster whose goal is to send as few messages as possible to all clients so that each one can recover its desired symbol. Additionally, each client has some predetermined side information, corresponding to certain symbols of the input $textbf{x}$, which we represent as the side information graph $mathcal{G}$. The graph $mathcal{G}$ has a vertex $v_i$ for each client and a directed edge $(v_i, v_j)$ indicating that client $i$ knows the $j$th symbol of the input. Given a fixed side information graph $mathcal{G}$, we are interested in determining or approximating the broadcast rate of index coding on the graph, i.e. the fewest number of messages the broadcaster can transmit so that every client gets their desired information. Using index coding schemes based on linear programs (LPs), we take a two-pronged approach to approximating the broadcast rate. First, extending earlier work on planar graphs, we focus on approximating the broadcast rate for special graph families such as graphs with small chromatic number and disk graphs. In certain cases, we are able to show that simple LP-based schemes give constant-factor approximations of the broadcast rate, which seem extremely difficult to obtain in the general case. Second, we provide several LP-based schemes for the general case which are not constant-factor approximations, but which strictly improve on the prior best-known schemes.
We investigate the construction of weakly-secure index codes for a sender to send messages to multiple receivers with side information in the presence of an eavesdropper. We derive a sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of index codes that are secure against an eavesdropper with access to any subset of messages of cardinality $t$, for any fixed $t$. In contrast to the benefits of using random keys in secure network coding, we prove that random keys do not promote security in three classes of index-coding instances.
This letter investigates a new class of index coding problems. One sender broadcasts packets to multiple users, each desiring a subset, by exploiting prior knowledge of linear combinations of packets. We refer to this class of problems as index codin g with coded side-information. Our aim is to characterize the minimum index code length that the sender needs to transmit to simultaneously satisfy all user requests. We show that the optimal binary vector index code length is equal to the minimum rank (minrank) of a matrix whose elements consist of the sets of desired packet indices and side- information encoding matrices. This is the natural extension of matrix minrank in the presence of coded side information. Using the derived expression, we propose a greedy randomized algorithm to minimize the rank of the derived matrix.
