Anotation:

Fundamentals of information theory with a view towards efficient data compression and reliable transmission of information using selfcorrecting codes.

Study targets:

Understanding of mathematical models used in coding and transmission of digital information.

Course outlines:

1) Algebraic structures in error detection and correction. Countimg modulo n.
2) Linear algebra over field Zp.
3) Linear codes - generating and controling matrix.
4) Error correction, Hamming codes.
5) Polynomials over Zp and quotient rings of polynomials.
6) Cyclic codes - generating and controling polynomial.
7) Galois fields, primitive element.
8) Generating roots of cyclic codes in a field.
9) BCH codes.
10) Information theory - probability and entropy.
11) Entropy, divergence, mutual information.
12) Data compression and source coding.
13) Universal source coding (Lempel - Ziv).
14) Information channel. Shannon theorem about capacity of channel.
