Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for error correction of distributed data in distributed systems using Reed-Solomon codes. In one embodiment, processes are provided for error correction that include receiving a first correction code for data fragments stored in storage nodes, constructing a second correction code responsive to an unavailable storage node of the storage nodes, performing erasure repair of the unavailable storage node, and outputting a corrected data fragment. The first correction code is a Reed-Solomon code represented as a polynomial and the second correction code is represented as a second polynomial with an increased subpacketization size. Processes are configured to account for repair bandwidth and sub-packetization size. Code constructions and repair schemes accommodate different sizes of evaluation points and provide a flexible tradeoff between the subpacketization size repair bandwidth of codes. In addition, schemes are provided to manage a single node failure and multiple node failures.

Abstract: A method includes the step of interleaving training and feedback stages in a transmitter and a multiplicity of antennas, wherein the transmitter trains the corresponding ones of the multiplicity of antennas one by one and receives feedback information after training each one of the corresponding ones of the multiplicity of antennas. An apparatus operating using the method includes a multiple-input single-output system with t transmitter antennas, a short-term power constraint P, and target data rate ρ where for any t, the same outage probability as a system with perfect transmitter and receiver channel state information is achieved with a feedback rate of R1 bits per channel state and via training R2 transmitter antennas on average, where R1 and R2 are independent of t, and depend only on ρ and P.

Abstract: Communication systems and methods in accordance with various embodiments of the invention utilize modulation on zeros. Carrier frequency offsets (CFO) can result in an unknown rotation of all zeros of a received signal's z-transform. Therefore, a binary MOCZ scheme (BMOCZ) can be utilized in which the modulated binary data is encoded using a cycling register code (e.g. CPC or ACPC), enabling receivers to determine cyclic shifts in the BMOCZ symbol resulting from a CFO. Receivers in accordance with several embodiments of the invention include decoders capable of decoding information bits from received discrete-time baseband signals by: estimating a timing offset for the received signal; determining a plurality of zeros of a z-transform of the received symbol; identifying zeros from the plurality of zeros that encode received bits by correcting fractional rotations resulting from the CFO; and decoding information bits based upon the received bits using a cycling register code.

Abstract: An apparatus or method for minimizing the total accessing cost, such as minimizing repair bandwidth, delay or the number of hops including the steps of minimizing the number of nodes to be engaged for the recovery process using a polynomial-time solution that determines the optimal number of participating nodes and the optimal set of nodes to be engaged for recovering lost data, where in a distributed database storage system, for example a dynamic system, where the accessing cost or even the number of available nodes are subject to change results in different values for the optimal number of participating nodes. An MDS code is included which can be reused when the number of participating nodes varies without having to change the entire code structure and the content of the nodes.
