Relay communications channels have been shown to be used to achieve combined diversity and coding gain in wireless communications networks. To enhance the performance of relay network some cooperation and distributed coding schemes have been introduced. In relay networks signals transmitted from one terminal to another through a number of relays. Embedding the distributed turbo code (DTC) technique into the relay channels has been shown to approach the theoretical bound of the capacity of the wireless relay networks. In some applications, the availability of the power required at the source device to satisfy some level of quality at the destination device is not available, like in sensor networks, and in some other applications the power assigned for the source and relay devices are different. In this paper, for the distributed turbo code (DTC) in relay network, we consider a two hop relay network, which consists of one source device, one relay device and one destination device. So, in this paper, the power allocated to each component of the turbo code word, which are generated at both source device and at the relay device, has been investigated and conclusions are drawn for design purposes to enhance the performance of the distributed turbo code (DTC) in relay networks.

Multi-terminal sources coding refers to separate lossy encoding and joint decoding of two or more correlated sources. Based on good output performance it can effectively reduce encoding complexity. With focus on the asymmetry case, This paper designs a asymmetry multi-terminal sources audio coding algorithm, then analyses and simulates it. The encouraging simulation results show multi-terminal sources audio coding is feasible, simple and can get higher acoustical effect.

The CEO problem of estimating a single binary data source using multiple observations is considered. A closed form equation for maximum achievable information capacity of the system is derived for different system parameters including number of sensors, observation accuracy and channel quality. A new criterion for sensor clustering is provided based on the minimum number of sensors required to achieve arbitrarily low estimation error using different coding rates. A distributed joint source-channel coding (D-JSCC) scheme is proposed as an implementation example. The proposed coding scheme is based on the parallel concatenated convolutional codes (PCCC) that achieves high BER performance utilizing the number of sensors determined by the derived criterion(1).

Adaptive network coded cooperation (ANCC) scheme may have excellent performance for data transmission from a large collection of terminals to a common destination in wireless networks. However, the random relay selection strategy for ANCC protocol may generate the distributed low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes with many short cycles which may cause error floor and performance degradation. In this paper, an optimized relay selection strategy for ANCC is proposed. Before data communication, by exploiting low-cost information interaction between the destination and terminals, the proposed method generates good assembles of distributed LDPC codes and its storage requirement reduces dramatically. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed relay selection protocol significantly outperforms the random relay selection strategy.

Randomly connected recurrent networks of excitatory groups of neurons can possess a multitude of attractor states. When the internal excitatory synapses of these networks are depressing, the attractor states can be destabilized with increasing input. This leads to an itinerancy, where with either repeated transient stimuli, or increasing duration of a single stimulus, the network activity advances through sequences of attractor states. We find that the resulting network state, which persists beyond stimulus offset, can encode the number of stimuli presented via a distributed representation of neural activity with non-monotonic tuning curves for most neurons. Increased duration of a single stimulus is encoded via different distributed representations, so unlike an integrator, the network distinguishes separate successive presentations of a short stimulus from a single presentation of a longer stimulus with equal total duration. Moreover, different amplitudes of stimulus cause new, distinct activity patterns, such that changes in stimulus number, duration and amplitude can be distinguished from each other. These properties of the network depend on dynamic depressing synapses, as they disappear if synapses are static. Thus, short-term synaptic depression allows a network to store separately the different dynamic properties of a spatially constant stimulus.

In this paper, we extend the case of information exchange error mitigation for the distributed orthogonal space-time block code (DOSTBC) for two transmit antennas to distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (DQOSTBC) for four transmit antennas. A rate 1 full-diversity DQOSTBC for four transmit antennas is designed. The code matrix changes according to different information exchange error cases, so full diversity is maintained even if not all information exchange is correct. We also perform analysis of the pairwise error probability. The performance analysis indicates that the proposed rate 1 DQOSTBC outperforms rate 1/2 DOSTBC for four transmit antennas at the same transmission rate, which is confirmed by the simulation results.

We develop a mathematical framework for the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) analysis to assess the convergence behavior of maximum a posteriori (MAP) based joint iterative decoding of correlated sources which are separately encoded and transmitted over noisy channels Unlike the previous work our approach focuses on the case side information about the correlation is not perfectly given at the joint decoder but is extracted from decoder output and updated in an iterative manner The presented framework provides a convenient way to compare between schemes We show that it allows us to easily and accurately predict Joint decoding gain and turbo cliff position

An improved distributed turbo coding (DTC) scheme, namely, systematic-bit-selection DTC, is proposed for a two-hop relay network implementing selective-relaying (SR). In the scheme, source broadcasts a punctured turbo code in order to increase the successful decoding rate of relay. The relay forwards systematic-bit to the destination in case of successful cyclic redundancy check (CRC). From the two versions of systematic-bit coming from relay and source respectively, the des- tination selects the one with higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for turbo decoding. Simulation re- suits show the improved bit error rate (BER) performance of our scheme.

An optimal choice among alternative behavioral options requires precise anticipatory representations of their possible outcomes. A fundamental question is how such anticipated outcomes are represented in the brain. Reward coding at the level of single cells in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) follows a more heterogeneous coding scheme than suggested by studies using functional MRI (fMRI) in humans. Using a combination of multivariate pattern classification and fMRI we show that the reward value of sensory cues can be decoded from distributed fMRI patterns in the OFC. This distributed representation is compatible with previous reports from animal electrophysiology that show that reward is encoded by different neural populations with opposing coding schemes. Importantly, the fMRI patterns representing specific values during anticipation are similar to those that emerge during the receipt of reward. Furthermore, we show that the degree of this coding similarity is related to subjects' ability to use value information to guide behavior. These findings narrow the gap between reward coding in humans and animals and corroborate the notion that value representations in OFC are independent of whether reward is anticipated or actually received.

Instances of sustained stationary sensory input are ubiquitous. However, previous work focused almost exclusively on transient onset responses. This presents a critical challenge for neural theories of conscious-ness, which should account for the full temporal extent of experience. To address this question, we use intra-cranial recordings from ten human patients with epilepsy to view diverse images of multiple durations. We reveal that, in sensory regions, despite dramatic changes in activation magnitude, the distributed represen-tation of categories and exemplars remains sustained and stable. In contrast, in frontoparietal regions, we find transient content representation at stimulus onset. Our results highlight the connection between the anatomical and temporal correlates of experience. To the extent perception is sustained, it may rely on sen-sory representations and to the extent perception is discrete, centered on perceptual updating, it may rely on frontoparietal representations.
