What is the maximum rate at which information can be transmitted error-free in fibre–optic communication systems? For linear channels, this was established in classic works of Nyquist and Shannon.

Current optical fibre transmission systems rely on modulation, coding and multiplexing techniques that were originally developed for linear communication channels. However, linear transmission ...

Abstract: This work investigates the sample-data output consensus problem for heterogeneous linear multi-agent systems with time-varying communication delays under fixed topology and switching ...
