Broadcast channels

We introduce the problem of a single source attempting to communicate information simultaneously to several receivers. The intent is to model the situation of a broadcaster with multiple receivers or a lecturer with many listeners. Thus several different channels with a common input alphabet are specified. We shall determine the families of simultaneously achievable transmission rates for many ...

Quantum broadcast channels and cryptographic applications for separable states

Quantum information-theoretic models of secret source-sharing are developed using a general LOCC scheme, i.e. a protocol involving only local operations and classical communication. This is in order to generate a common random key from a shared quantum state at two terminals without allowing an eavesdropper to obtain information about this key. Coding theorems for special separable states are o...

Comments on Broadcast Channels

The key ideas in the theory of broadcast channels are illustrated by discussing some of the progress toward finding the capacity region. The capacity region is still unknown.
