We study the network coding problem of sum-networks with 3 sources and n terminals (3s/nt sum-network), for an arbitrary positive integer n, and derive a sufficient and necessary condition for the solvability of a family of so-called terminal-separable sum-network. Both the condition of terminal-separable and the solvability of a terminal-separable sum-network can be decided in polynomial time. Consequently, we give another necessary and sufficient condition, which yields a faster (O(|E|) time) algorithm than that of Shenvi and Dey ([18], (O(|E|^3) time), to determine the solvability of the 3s/3t sum-network. To obtain the results, we further develop the region decomposition method in [22], [23] and generalize the decentralized coding method in [21]. Our methods provide new efficient tools for multiple source multiple sink network coding problems.

A code equivalence between index coding and network coding was established, which shows that any index-coding instance can be mapped to a network-coding instance, for which any index code can be translated to a network code with the same decoding-err
or performance, and vice versa. Also, any network-coding instance can be mapped to an index-coding instance with a similar code translation. In this paper, we extend the equivalence to secure index coding and secure network coding, where eavesdroppers are present in the networks, and any code construction needs to guarantee security constraints in addition to decoding-error performance.
Density evolution (DE) is one of the most powerful analytical tools for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes on memoryless binary-input/symmetric-output channels. The case of non-symmetric channels is tackled either by the LDPC coset code ensemble (
a channel symmetrizing argument) or by the generalized DE for linear codes on non-symmetric channels. Existing simulations show that the bit error rate performances of these two different approaches are nearly identical. This paper explains this phenomenon by proving that as the minimum check node degree $d_c$ becomes sufficiently large, the performance discrepancy of the linear and the coset LDPC codes is theoretically indistinguishable. This typicality of linear codes among the LDPC coset code ensemble provides insight into the concentration theorem of LDPC coset codes.
A sum-network is a directed acyclic network where each source independently generates one symbol from a given field $mathbb F$ and each terminal wants to receive the sum $($over $mathbb F)$ of the source symbols. For sum-networks with two sources or
two terminals, the solvability is characterized by the connection condition of each source-terminal pair [3]. A necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability of the $3$-source $3$-terminal $(3$s$/3$t$)$ sum-networks was given by Shenvi and Dey [6]. However, the general case of arbitrary sources/sinks is still open. In this paper, we investigate the sum-network with three sources and $n$ sinks using a region decomposition method. A sufficient and necessary condition is established for a class of $3$s$/n$t sum-networks. As a direct application of this result, a necessary and sufficient condition of solvability is obtained for the special case of $3$s$/3$t sum-networks.
This paper is concerned with decentralized estimation of a Gaussian source using multiple sensors. We consider a diversity scheme where only the sensor with the best channel sends their measurements over a fading channel to a fusion center, using the
analog amplify and forwarding technique. The fusion centre reconstructs an MMSE estimate of the source based on the received measurements. A distributed version of the diversity scheme where sensors decide whether to transmit based only on their local channel information is also considered. We derive asymptotic expressions for the expected distortion (of the MMSE estimate at the fusion centre) of these schemes as the number of sensors becomes large. For comparison, asymptotic expressions for the expected distortion for a coherent multi-access scheme and an orthogonal access scheme are derived. We also study for the diversity schemes, the optimal power allocation for minimizing the expected distortion subject to average total power constraints. The effect of optimizing the probability of transmission on the expected distortion in the distributed scenario is also studied. It is seen that as opposed to the coherent multi-access scheme and the orthogonal scheme (where the expected distortion decays as 1/M, M being the number of sensors), the expected distortion decays only as 1/ln(M) for the diversity schemes. This reduction of the decay rate can be seen as a tradeoff between the simplicity of the diversity schemes and the strict synchronization and large bandwidth requirements for the coherent multi-access and the orthogonal schemes, respectively.
We study upper bounds on the sum-rate of multiple-unicasts. We approximate the Generalized Network Sharing Bound (GNS cut) of the multiple-unicasts network coding problem with $k$ independent sources. Our approximation algorithm runs in polynomial ti
me and yields an upper bound on the joint source entropy rate, which is within an $O(log^2 k)$ factor from the GNS cut. It further yields a vector-linear network code that achieves joint source entropy rate within an $O(log^2 k)$ factor from the GNS cut, but emph{not} with independent sources: the code induces a correlation pattern among the sources. Our second contribution is establishing a separation result for vector-linear network codes: for any given field $mathbb{F}$ there exist networks for which the optimum sum-rate supported by vector-linear codes over $mathbb{F}$ for independent sources can be multiplicatively separated by a factor of $k^{1-delta}$, for any constant ${delta>0}$, from the optimum joint entropy rate supported by a code that allows correlation between sources. Finally, we establish a similar separation result for the asymmetric optimum vector-linear sum-rates achieved over two distinct fields $mathbb{F}_{p}$ and $mathbb{F}_{q}$ for independent sources, revealing that the choice of field can heavily impact the performance of a linear network code.
