When Does Output Feedback Enlarge the Capacity of the Interference Channel?
In this paper, the benefits of channel-output feedback in the Gaussian interference channel (G-IC) are studied under the effect of additive Gaussian noise. Using a linear deterministic (LD) model, the signal to noise ratios (SNRs) in the feedback links beyond which feedback plays a significant role in terms of increasing the individual rates or the sum-rate are approximated. The relevance of this work lies on the fact that it identifies the feedback SNRs for which in any G-IC one of the following statements is true: (a) feedback does not enlarge the capacity region; (b) feedback enlarges the capacity region and the sum-rate is greater than the largest sum-rate without feedback; and (c) feedback enlarges the capacity region but no significant improvement is observed in the sum-rate
Approximate Nash Region of the Gaussian Interference Channel with Noisy Output Feedback
International audienceIn this paper, an achievable -Nash equilibrium (-NE) region for the two-user Gaussian interference channel with noisy channel-output feedback is presented for all . This result is obtained in the scenario in which each transmitter-receiver pair chooses its own transmit-receive configuration in order to maximize its own individual information transmission rate. At an -NE, any unilateral deviation by either of the pairs does not increase the corresponding individual rate by more than bits per channel use
