Approximate Sum-Capacity of K-user Cognitive Interference Channels with Cumulative Message Sharing
This paper considers the K user cognitive interference channel with one
primary and K-1 secondary/cognitive transmitters with a cumulative message
sharing structure, i.e cognitive transmitter knows non-causally
all messages of the users with index less than i. We propose a computable outer
bound valid for any memoryless channel. We first evaluate the sum-rate outer
bound for the high- SNR linear deterministic approximation of the Gaussian
noise channel. This is shown to be capacity for the 3-user channel with
arbitrary channel gains and the sum-capacity for the symmetric K-user channel.
Interestingly. for the K user channel having only the K th cognitive know all
the other messages is sufficient to achieve capacity i.e cognition at
transmitter 2 to K-1 is not needed. Next the sum capacity of the symmetric
Gaussian noise channel is characterized to within a constant additive and
multiplicative gap. The proposed achievable scheme for the additive gap is
based on Dirty paper coding and can be thought of as a MIMO-broadcast scheme
where only one encoding order is possible due to the message sharing structure.
As opposed to other multiuser interference channel models, a single scheme
suffices for both the weak and strong interference regimes. With this scheme
the generalized degrees of freedom (gDOF) is shown to be a function of K, in
contrast to the non cognitive case and the broadcast channel case.
Interestingly, it is show that as the number of users grows to infinity the
gDoF of the K-user cognitive interference channel with cumulative message
sharing tends to the gDoF of a broadcast channel with a K-antenna transmitter
and K single-antenna receivers. The analytical additive additive and
multiplicative gaps are a function of the number of users. Numerical
evaluations of inner and outer bounds show that the actual gap is less than the
analytical one.Comment: Journa
Capacity Regions and Sum-Rate Capacities of Vector Gaussian Interference Channels
The capacity regions of vector, or multiple-input multiple-output, Gaussian
interference channels are established for very strong interference and aligned
strong interference. Furthermore, the sum-rate capacities are established for Z
interference, noisy interference, and mixed (aligned weak/intermediate and
aligned strong) interference. These results generalize known results for scalar
Gaussian interference channels.Comment: 33 pages, 1 figure, submitted to IEEE trans. on Information theor
A Relay Can Increase Degrees of Freedom in Bursty Interference Networks
We investigate the benefits of relays in multi-user wireless networks with
bursty user traffic, where intermittent data traffic restricts the users to
bursty transmissions. To this end, we study a two-user bursty MIMO Gaussian
interference channel with a relay, where two Bernoulli random states govern the
bursty user traffic. We show that an in-band relay can provide a degrees of
freedom (DoF) gain in this bursty channel. This beneficial role of in-band
relays in the bursty channel is in direct contrast to their role in the
non-bursty channel which is not as significant to provide a DoF gain. More
importantly, we demonstrate that for certain antenna configurations, an in-band
relay can help achieve interference-free performances with increased DoF. We
find the benefits particularly substantial with low data traffic, as the DoF
gain can grow linearly with the number of antennas at the relay. In this work,
we first derive an outer bound from which we obtain a necessary condition for
interference-free DoF performances. Then, we develop a novel scheme that
exploits information of the bursty traffic states to achieve them.Comment: submitted to the IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
A New Capacity Result for the Z-Gaussian Cognitive Interference Channel
This work proposes a novel outer bound for the Gaussian cognitive
interference channel in strong interference at the primary receiver based on
the capacity of a multi-antenna broadcast channel with degraded message set. It
then shows that for the Z-channel, i.e., when the secondary receiver
experiences no interference and the primary receiver experiences strong
interference, the proposed outer bound not only is the tightest among known
bounds but is actually achievable for sufficiently strong interference. The
latter is a novel capacity result that from numerical evaluations appears to be
generalizable to a larger (i.e., non-Z) class of Gaussian channels
