We study the problem of strong coordination of actions of two agents $X$ and $Y$ that communicate over a noisy communication channel such that the actions follow a given joint probability distribution. We propose two novel schemes for this noisy strong coordination problem, and derive inner bounds for the underlying strong coordination capacity region. The first scheme is a joint coordination-channel coding scheme that utilizes the randomness provided by the communication channel to reduce the local randomness required in generating the action sequence at agent $Y$. The second scheme exploits separate coordination and channel coding where local randomness is extracted from the channel after decoding. Finally, we present an example in which the joint scheme is able to outperform the separate scheme in terms of coordination rate.

We study the problem of strong coordination of the actions of two nodes $X$ and $Y$ that communicate over a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) such that the actions follow a prescribed joint probability distribution. We propose two novel random coding schemes and a polar coding scheme for this noisy strong coordination problem, and derive inner bounds for the respective strong coordination capacity region. The first scheme is a joint coordination-channel coding scheme that utilizes the randomness provided by the DMC to reduce the amount of local randomness required to generate the sequence of actions at Node $Y$. Based on this random coding scheme, we provide a characterization of the capacity region for two special cases of the noisy strong coordination setup, namely, when the actions at Node $Y$ are determined by Node $X$ and when the DMC is a deterministic channel. The second scheme exploits separate coordination and channel coding where local randomness is extracted from the channel after decoding. The third scheme is a joint coordination-channel polar coding scheme for strong coordination. We show that polar codes are able to achieve the established inner bound to the noisy strong coordination capacity region and thus provide a constructive alternative to a random coding proof. Our polar coding scheme also offers a constructive solution to a channel simulation problem where a DMC and shared randomness are employed together to simulate another DMC. Finally, by leveraging the random coding results for this problem, we present an example in which the proposed joint scheme is able to strictly outperform the separate scheme in terms of achievable communication rate for the same amount of injected randomness into both systems. Thus, we establish the sub-optimality of the separation of strong coordination and channel coding with respect to the communication rate over the DMC.
We construct a joint coordination-channel polar coding scheme for strong coordination of actions between two agents $mathsf X$ and $mathsf Y$, which communicate over a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) such that the joint distribution of actions foll ows a prescribed probability distribution. We show that polar codes are able to achieve our previously established inner bound to the strong noisy coordination capacity region and thus provide a constructive alternative to a random coding proof. Our polar coding scheme also offers a constructive solution to a channel simulation problem where a DMC and shared randomness are together employed to simulate another DMC. In particular, our proposed solution is able to utilize the randomness of the DMC to reduce the amount of local randomness required to generate the sequence of actions at agent $mathsf Y$. By leveraging our earlier random coding results for this problem, we conclude that the proposed joint coordination-channel coding scheme strictly outperforms a separate scheme in terms of achievable communication rate for the same amount of injected randomness into both systems.
Because of its high data density and longevity, DNA is emerging as a promising candidate for satisfying increasing data storage needs. Compared to conventional storage media, however, data stored in DNA is subject to a wider range of errors resulting from various processes involved in the data storage pipeline. In this paper, we consider correcting duplication errors for both exact and noisy tandem duplications of a given length k. An exact duplication inserts a copy of a substring of length k of the sequence immediately after that substring, e.g., ACGT to ACGACGT, where k = 3, while a noisy duplication inserts a copy suffering from substitution noise, e.g., ACGT to ACGATGT. Specifically, we design codes that can correct any number of exact duplication and one noisy duplication errors, where in the noisy duplication case the copy is at Hamming distance 1 from the original. Our constructions rely upon recovering the duplication root of the stored codeword. We characterize the ways in which duplication errors manifest in the root of affected sequences and design efficient codes for correcting these error patterns. We show that the proposed construction is asymptotically optimal, in the sense that it has the same asymptotic rate as optimal codes correcting exact duplications only.
The fading wire-tap channel is investigated, where the source-to-destination channel and the source-to-wire-tapper channel are corrupted by multiplicative fading gain coefficients in addition to additive Gaussian noise terms. The channel state inform ation is assumed to be known at both the transmitter and the receiver. The parallel wire-tap channel with independent subchannels is first studied, which serves as an information-theoretic model for the fading wire-tap channel. The secrecy capacity of the parallel wire-tap channel is established. This result is then specialized to give the secrecy capacity of the fading wire-tap channel, which is achieved with the source node dynamically changing the power allocation according to the channel state realization. An optimal source power allocation is obtained to achieve the secrecy capacity.
We consider the problem of oblivious transfer (OT) over OFDM and MIMO wireless communication systems where only the receiver knows the channel state information. The sender and receiver also have unlimited access to a noise-free real channel. Using a physical layer approach, based on the properties of the noisy fading channel, we propose a scheme that enables the transmitter to send obliviously one-of-two files, i.e., without knowing which one has been actually requested by the receiver, while also ensuring that the receiver does not get any information about the other file.
