A new universal coding/decoding scheme for random access with collision detection is given in case of two senders. The result is used to give achievable joint sourcechannel coding error exponents for multiple access channel and independent sources. In a modified model admitting zero rate communication between the senders, an improved exponent is derived, of form similar to Csiszár's joint source-channel exponent for the one-sender case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
