Amos Lapidoth, Stefan M. Moser, Michèle Wigger:
Chapter 7 Channel capacity in Advanced Optical Wireless Communication Systems, edited by Shlomi Arnon, John Barry, George Karagiannidis, Robert Schober, and Murat Uysal, Cambridge University Press, May 2012. ISBN: 978–0–521–19787–8.

Combining fundamental theory with a broad overview, this book is an ideal reference for anyone working in optical wireless communication, as well as a valuable guide for self-study.
 
Stefan M. Moser, Po-Ning Chen:*
A Student's Guide to Coding and Information Theory, Cambridge University Press, January 2012. ISBN: 978–1–107–01583–8 (hardcover) and 978–1–107–60196–3 (paperback).

This textbook is thought to be an easy-to-read introduction to coding and information theory for students at the freshman level or for non-engineering major students. The required math background is minimal: simple calculus and probability theory on high-school level should be sufficient.
 
Stefan M. Moser:
Duality-Based Bounds on Channel Capacity, Volume 1 of ETH Series in Information Theory and its Applications, edited by Amos Lapidoth, Hartung-Gorre Verlag Konstanz, January 2005. ISBN: 3-89649-956-4.

In here you also find a lemma providing a closed form expression for the expected value of the logarithm of a non-central chi-square random variable.

Master Thesis

Stefan M. Moser:
Investigation of Algebraic Codes of Small Block Length using Factor Graphs, Master Thesis, Signal and Information Processing Laboratory, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, March 1999, supervised by Prof. Dr. George S. Moschytz. (Abstract, Simulations online) [.pdf]
Awarded the ETH Medal for an Excellent Diploma Thesis.

This Master's Thesis deals with factor graphs. These are generalizations of well-known algorithms like forward-backward algorithm, Viterbi-algorithm, Pearl's belief propagation algorithm, or iterative turbo decoding algorithm, etc. The thesis investigates the application of factor graphs for analog iterative block decoding of some short length Hamming and Golay codes. All examples are programmed in Java for online simulations.
In the mean time such decoders have been implemented in analog IC-circuits. For further information about the more current results contact Matthias Frey or Patrick Merkli ().
