Short-packet transmissions with variable-length codes

This repository contains the matlab numerical routines used to produce the numerical results in the paper:

J. Östman, R. Devassy, G. Durisi, and E. G. Ström, “Short-packet transmission via variable-length codes in the presence of noisy stop feedback,” IEEE Trans. Wireless Commun., vol. 20, no. 1, Jan. 2021. [arXiv], [IEEExplore]

Please, cite the aforementioned paper if you use this code.

Content of the repository

This repository contains two main files:

• Main_BiAwgn.m, which allows one to reproduce the results for the binary-input AWGN case, and
• Main_Rayleigh.m, which allows one to reproduce the results for the Rayleigh-fading case.
