Information Rate Decomposition for Noisy Nanopore Channels with Geometric Duplication
Brendon McBain, Emanuele Viterbo
This paper studies information rates of noisy duplication channels with memory, motivated by nanopore DNA sequencing. In nanopore sequencing, the measured signal is affected by bot…
Ergodic Capacity and Optimal Handover in Satellite Mega-Constellations under Finite Serving Times
Brendon McBain, Yi Hong, Emanuele Viterbo
Existing analyses of ergodic capacity in satellite mega-constellations often rely on restrictive serving time assumptions or become intractable under realistic handover strategies.…
Achievable Rates of Nanopore-based DNA Storage
Brendon McBain, Emanuele Viterbo
This paper studies achievable rates of nanopore-based DNA storage when nanopore signals are decoded using a tractable channel model that does not rely on a basecalling algorithm. S…
Stochastic Channel Models for Satellite Mega-Constellations
Brendon McBain, Yi Hong, Emanuele Viterbo
A general satellite channel model is proposed for communications between a rapidly moving low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite in a mega-constellation and a stationary user on Earth. Th…
