Parallel Delay-Doppler Estimation via Order-Reversed Two-Stage Prony Method

This paper proposes a Prony-based parallel two-stage method for delay-Doppler estimation in OTFS systems. By performing delay-first and Doppler-first estimations in parallel and fusing the results, the method resolves ambiguities caused by similar path characteristics. The simulation results demonstrate the superior accuracy and robustness of the proposed method under various conditions. This method provides a promising solution for future applications such as Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC).

Two-Stage Prony-Based Estimation of Fractional Delay and Doppler Shifts in OTFS Modulation

This paper addresses the estimation of fractional delay and Doppler shifts in multipath channels that cause doubly selective fading-an essential task for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems in high-mobility environments. Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) modulation enables simple and robust channel compensation under such conditions. However, fractional delay and Doppler components introduce inter-path interference, degrading estimation accuracy. We propose a two-stage estimation method based on Prony's technique using OTFS pilot signals with M subchannels and N pilot repetitions. In the first stage, Doppler frequencies are estimated by jointly solving M coupled Prony equations, exploiting the periodicity of the pilot signal. In the second stage, delays are estimated by applying the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and Prony's method to each Doppler component obtained in the first stage. The proposed method can accurately estimate up to N-1 delay-Doppler parameters under noiseless conditions. In noisy environments, conventional information criteria such as AIC and BIC yield suboptimal performance; thus, a heuristic model order selection is adopted. Numerical simulations confirm that the proposed method achieves high estimation accuracy, highlighting its potential for future ISAC frameworks.

Design of OTFS Signals with Pulse Shaping and Window Function for OTFS-Based Radar

We propose a pulse radar system that employs a generalized window function derived from the root raised cosine (RRC), which relaxes the conventional constraint that the window values are within the range [0, 1]. The proposed window allows both negative values and values exceeding 1, enabling greater flexibility in signal design. The system transmits orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) signals intermittently, establishing a flexible input-output relationship that captures both fractional delays and Doppler shifts. By combining the generalized RRC window with a rectangular pulse, the resulting pilot signal achieves a sharp concentration in the ambiguity function over both the delay and Doppler domains. To enhance the estimation accuracy of fractional parameters, we apply frequency-domain interpolation based on the autocorrelation of the RRC window, which outperforms conventional linear interpolation by preserving the signal structure more effectively.

Inference of noise intensity and phase response from noisy synchronous oscillators

Numerous biological and microscale systems exhibit synchronization in noisy environments. The theory of such noisy oscillators and their synchronization has been developed and experimentally demonstrated, but inferring the noise intensity and phase response is not always straightforward. In this study, we propose a useful formula that enables us to infer the noise intensity and phase response of a noisy oscillator synchronized with periodic external forcing. Through asymptotic approximations for small noise, we show that noisy synchronous oscillators satisfy a simple relationship among the noise intensity and measurable quantities, i.e., the stationary distribution of the oscillation phase and stationary probability current obtained as the average phase velocity, which is verified through systematic numerical analysis. The proposed formula facilitates a unified analysis and design of synchronous oscillators in weakly noisy environments.

Computation of the optimal error exponent function for fixed-length lossy source coding in discrete memoryless sources

Marton's optimal error exponent for the lossy source coding problem is defined as a non-convex optimization problem. This fact had prevented us to develop an efficient algorithm to compute it. This problem is caused by the fact that the rate-distortion function $R(Δ|P)$ is potentially non-concave in the probability distribution $P$ for a fixed distortion level $Δ$. The main contribution of this paper is the development of a parametric expression that is in perfect agreement with the inverse function of the Marton exponent. This representation has two layers. The inner layer is convex optimization and can be computed efficiently. The outer layer, on the other hand, is a non-convex optimization with respect to two parameters. We give a method for computing the Marton exponent based on this representation.

2D Sinc Interpolation-Based Fractional Delay and Doppler Estimation Using Time and Frequency Shifted Gaussian Pulses

An accurate delay and Doppler estimation method for a radar system using time and frequency-shifted pulses with pseudo-random numbers is proposed. The ambiguity function of the transmitted signal has a strong peak at the origin and is close to zero if delay and Doppler are more than the inverses of the bandwidth and time-width. A two-dimensional (2D) sinc function gives a good approximation of the ambiguity function around the origin, by which fractional delay and Doppler are accurately estimated.

Computing the optimal error exponential function for fixed-length lossy coding in discrete memoryless sources

The error exponent of fixed-length lossy source coding was established by Marton. Ahlswede showed that this exponent can be discontinuous at a rate $R$, depending on the probability distribution $P$ of the given information source and the distortion measure $d(x,y)$. The reason for the discontinuity in the error exponent is that there exists $(d,Δ)$ such that the rate-distortion function $R(Δ|P)$ is neither concave nor quasi-concave with respect to $P$. Arimoto's algorithm for computing the error exponent in lossy source coding is based on Blahut's parametric representation of the error exponent. However, Blahut's parametric representation is a lower convex envelope of Marton's exponent, and the two do not generally agree. The contribution of this paper is to provide a parametric representation that perfectly matches with the inverse function of Marton's exponent, thus avoiding the problem of the rate-distortion function being non-convex with respect to $P$. The optimal distribution for fixed parameters can be obtained using Arimoto's algorithm. Performing a nonconvex optimization over the parameters successfully yields the inverse function of Marton's exponent.

Algorithm Families for Computing Information-Theoretic Forms of Strong Converse Exponents in Channel Coding and Lossy Source Coding

The error exponent of a discrete memoryless channel is expressed in two forms. One is Gallager's expression with a positive slope parameter and the other is Csiszar and Korner's information-theoretic representation expressed using the mutual information and the relative entropy. They differ in appearance, and existing methods to prove their agreement are not elementary, as they require an evaluation of the KKT conditions that the optimal distribution must satisfy. Similarly, there are two types of expressions for the strong converse exponent. They are Arimoto's expression with a negative slope parameter and Dueck and Korner's information-theoretic expression. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the relation between two ways of representing exponents, i.e., representations using slope parameters and those using information-theoretic quantities, from the viewpoint of algorithms for computing exponents. Arimoto's algorithm is based on expression using slope parameters, while the authors' and Tridenski and Zamir's algorithms are based on Dueck and Korner's information-theoretic expression. An algorithm family that includes the above two algorithms as special cases was recently proposed. This paper clarifies that the convergence of Tridenski and Zamir's algorithm proves the match of Arimoto's and Dueck and Korner's exponents. We discuss another family of algorithms and, using the surrogate objective function used therein, prove that the two expressions of the error exponent coincide. Evaluation of the KKT condition is not needed in this proof. We then discuss the computation of the error and correct decoding probability exponents in lossy source coding. A new algorithm family for computing the source coding strong converse exponent is defined. The convergence of a member of the algorithm family implies the match of the two expressions of the strong converse exponent.

The Conditional Information Leakage Given Eavesdropper's Received Signals in Wiretap Channels

Information leakage in Wyner's wiretap channel model is usually defined as the mutual information between the secret message and the eavesdropper's received signal. We define a new quantity called "conditional information leakage given the eavesdropper's received signals," which expresses the amount of information that eavesdropper gains from his/her received signal. A benefit of introducing this quantity is that we can develop a fast algorithm for computing the conditional information leakage, which has linear complexity in the code length $n$, while the complexity for computing the usual information leakage is exponential in $n$. Validity of such a conditional information leakage as a security criterion is confirmed by studying the cases of binary symmetric channels and binary erasure channels.

An Iterative Algorithm for Computing the Optimal Exponent of Correct Decoding Probability for Rates below the Rate Distortion Function

The form of Dueck and Körner's exponent function for correct decoding probability for discrete memoryless channels at rates above the capacity is similar to the form of Csiszár and Körner's exponent function for correct decoding probability in lossy source coding for discrete memoryless sources at rates below the rate distortion function. We recently gave a new algorithm for computing Dueck and Körner's exponent. In this paper, we give an algorithm for computing Csiszár and Körner's exponent. The proposed algorithm can be also used to compute cutoff rate and the rate distortion function.
