Weighted Superimposed Codes and Constrained Integer Compressed Sensing
  We introduce a new family of codes, termed weighted superimposed codes (WSCs). This family generalizes the class of Euclidean superimposed codes (ESCs), used in multiuser identification systems. WSCs allow for discriminating all bounded, integer-valued linear combinations of real-valued codewords that satisfy prescribed norm and non-negativity constraints. By design, WSCs are inherently noise tolerant. Therefore, these codes can be seen as special instances of robust compressed sensing schemes. The main results of the paper are lower and upper bounds on the largest achievable code rates of several classes of WSCs. These bounds suggest that with the codeword and weighting vector constraints at hand, one can improve the code rates achievable by standard compressive sensing.
