In this paper, we study the uplink of a cellular system using the linear
deterministic approximation model, where there are two users transmitting to a
receiver, mutually interfering with a third transmitter communicating with a
second receiver. We give an achievable coding scheme and prove its optimality,
i.e. characterize the capacity region. This scheme is a form of interference
alignment which exploits the channel gain difference of the two-user cell.Comment: Submitted to IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory
