Abstract

Massive Internet of Things (IoT) networks operate with short packets whose reliability is limited by finite block- length (FBL) effects, while remote deployments increasingly rely on Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites for backhaul connectivity that is sensitive to atmospheric attenuation. In this paper, we pro- pose a unified end-to-end framework for satellite-assisted massive IoT networks that jointly models uplink FBL random access, sensing assisted satellite backhaul, and worst user broadcast downlink transmission. Uplink reliability is characterized using stochastic geometry, while atmospheric sensing and conservative SNR margins enable FBL-safe backhaul adaptation. Numerical results reveal an optimal uplink access probability due to the tradeoff between spatial reuse and FBL reliability, and show that sensing assisted backhaul margins significantly improve robustness against attenuation uncertainty.

Efficient and rate-optimal list-decoding in the presence of minimal feedback

Given a channel with length-$n$ inputs and outputs over the alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, and of which a fraction $\varrho \in (0,1-1/q)$ of symbols can be arbitrarily corrupted by an adversary, a fundamental problem is that of communicating at rates close to the information-theoretically optimal values, while ensuring the receiver can infer that the transmitter's message is from a ``small" set. While the existence of such codes is known, and constructions with computationally tractable encoding/decoding procedures are known for large $q$, we provide the first schemes that attain this performance for any $q \geq 2$, as long as low-rate feedback (asymptotically negligible relative to the number of transmissions) from the receiver to the transmitter is available. For any sufficiently small $\varepsilon > 0$ and $\varrho \in (1-{1}/{q}-Θ(\sqrt{\varepsilon}))$ our minimal feedback scheme has the following parameters: Rate $1-H_q(\varrho) - \varepsilon$ (i.e., $\varepsilon$-close to information-theoretically optimal -- here $H_q(\varrho)$ is the $q$-ary entropy function), list-size $\exp\left(\mathcal{O}\left(\varepsilon^{-3/2}\log^2(1/\varepsilon)\right)\right)$, computational complexity of encoding/decoding $n^{\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-1}\log(1/\varepsilon))}$, storage complexity $\mathcal{O}(n^{η+1}\log n)$ for a code design parameter $η>1$ that trades off storage complexity with the probability of error. The error probability is $\mathcal{O}(n^{-η})$, and the (vanishing) feedback rate is $\mathcal{O}({1}/{\sqrt{\log(n)}})$. Our full-feedback scheme has zero probability of error and minimal storage complexity, while the other parameters are the same as the vanishing rate feedback scheme.

On Cost-Aware Designs for Sequential Hypothesis Testing

We introduce Cost-Aware (CA) Sequential Hypothesis Testing (CASHT), in which an active decision-maker selects sensing actions with different, random costs to identify the true hypothesis under an average-error constraint $δ$, while minimizing the expected total cost (rather than the number of samples). For fixed costs, we prove that the optimal expected total cost scales as $Θ(\log(1/δ))$, and is achievable by Multihypothesis Sequential Probability Ratio Test-based procedures. We show that the CA design principle is to maximize the ratio of expected information gain to expected cost under the policy-induced action distribution. Guided by this principle, we adapt two classic policies to the CA setting and establish their asymptotic optimality. We then treat random costs under two revelation models: ex-post, where costs are disclosed only after a sample is obtained, and the cost-error tradeoff coincides with the fixed-cost case, and ex-ante, where costs accrue before acquisition, and the decision maker may cancel an action mid-operation. For the ex-ante model, we characterize when cancellation lowers the total cost and analyze several cost distributions in detail. Simulations confirm our findings that the CA variants consistently reduce total cost relative to their classic counterparts, and when action cancellation helps or hurts.

Construction of Multi-sequences With High Nonlinear Complexity via Narrow Ray Class Fields

Nonlinear complexity is a fundamental criterion in the evaluation of pseudorandom sequences. The construction of multi-sequences with high nonlinear complexity is both theoretically and practically important in cryptography. Motivated by prior constructions of multi-sequences with high nonlinear complexity in [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 60(10), 2014] and [IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, 63(12), 2017], we provide a unified framework via narrow ray class fields and the cyclic descent introduced by Guruswami and Xing in [J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 129 (2015) ]. Then we can generate new multi-sequences with high nonlinear complexity over function fields with arbitrary genera.
