This paper is motivated by a sensor network on a correlated field where nearby sensors share information, and can thus assist rather than interfere with one another. We consider a special class of two-user Gaussian interference channels (IFCs) where one of the two transmitters knows both the messages to be conveyed to the two receivers. Both achievability and converse arguments are provided for a channel with Gaussian inputs and Gaussian noise when the interference is weaker than the direct link (a so called weak IFC). In general, this region serves as an outer bound on the capacity of weak IFCs with no shared knowledge between transmitters.
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.
