Abstract: A decoder for determining an estimate of a vector of information symbols carried by a signal received through a transmission channel represented by a channel matrix is provided. The decoder includes a block division unit configured to divide the vector of information symbols into two or more sub-vectors, each sub-vector being associated with a block level; two or more processors configured to determine, in parallel, candidate sub-vectors and to store the candidate sub-vectors in a first stack. Each processor is configured to determine at least a candidate sub-vector by applying a symbol estimation algorithm and to store each candidate sub-vector with a decoding metric and the block level associated with the candidate sub-vector. The decoding metric is lower than or equal to a decoding metric threshold. A processor among the two or more processors is configured to determine at least a candidate vector from candidate sub-vectors stored in the first stack, the candidate vector being associated with a cumulated decoding metric and to update the decoding metric threshold from the cumulated decoding metric.

Abstract: A method for generating a reduced-blur digital image representing a scene, the method being computer-implemented and comprising the following successive steps: i) providing at least two digital source images, a same element of the scene being represented in at least two source images, ii) selecting a reference image among the source images, iii) for at least one source image different from the reference image, and for at least one pixel of the reference image, a) defining a pattern in the reference image comprising pixels of the reference image, the element being represented in said pattern, b) constructing a map of coordinates that associates coordinates of the pattern in the reference image with the coordinates of the most similar pattern in the source image, c) optionally, filtering of the map of coordinates, and d) generating a corrected image by assigning to a pixel of the corrected image, the position of the pixel of the reference image and a color extracted from the source image point which position is defined by the, optionally filtered, map of coordinates, iv) generating the reduced-blur image by processing, with a multifocus image fusion technique, the corrected image(s) and the reference image.

Abstract: A system and method for assigning users to a particular sub band in a given time slot in a NOMA system, where whichever pair of users corresponds to the smallest “candidate pair user throughput deviation value”, reflecting the aggregate of the respective difference between the average throughput across all users (K) and the known throughput of each of the two users under consideration (k1k2), and each user attributed to a sub-band other than the selected sub-band. User pairs for consideration may consider all possible pairs, or may be limited to candidate pairs satisfying together, or comprising one or both users who satisfy a criterion such as channel gain, distance to a target, throughput or a combination of some or all of these factors. The power allocated to each sub-band may be attributed by a waterfilling algorithm.

Abstract: A method of determining a performance metric for a selection of a first user and a second user among a set of candidate users for attribution to a sub-band in a multiple access communications system based on Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA), is provided wherein the first user (k1) and the second user (k2) are selected as the pair of candidate users corresponding to an extremum of the ratio between a first term reflecting the total throughput achievable by any pair of the candidate users assigned to the sub-band (s) under consideration, and a second term reflecting the known throughput achieved by that same pair of candidate users over a predetermined preceding period. Implementations include a method of determining a performance metric is presented for attributing users to one or more of a plurality of sub-bands in a multiple access communications system, wherein in an initial assignment phase for a specific sub-band, a first user is selected for that band on the basis of one or more criteria such as user priority. Then a second sub-band user maximizing or minimizing the performance metric.

Abstract: Systems and associated methods of performing coherent optical communication of quantum information between an emitter A and a distant receiver B are provided, using a local local oscillator. Examples of LLO-based Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution are described. Self-coherent schemes are used, the schemes consisting in deriving both signal and phase reference pulses from the same optical pulse thus ensuring an intrinsic strong signal to reference phase coherence. Different CV-QKD designs implementing various self-coherence phase sharing schemes are described and compared in terms of secret key rate and hardware requirements. Strong phase noise resilience can be obtained with standard telecom equipment such as low cost lasers.

Abstract: A method is provided for detecting the presence of an anomaly within an observed physical signal. The observed signal includes an addition of a physical disturbance signal and a reference signal. The anomaly is relative to a change in the behavior of the reference signal compared with a first tolerance value. Such a method includes: determining a time span having at least one moment of interest; detecting the presence of the anomaly within the observed physical signal during the time span by conducting a hypothesis test using the first tolerance value, a first rate of tolerated false alarms, and data obtained from processing the observed signal.
