Multi - User Communication Systems : Capacity , Duality , and Cooperation
In this thesis we investigate the capacity of multi-user wireless communication channels. We first establish a duality relationship between the Gaussian broadcast and multiple-access channels. This relationship allows us to characterize the capacity region of the Gaussian broadcast channel in terms of the dual Gaussian multiple-access channel, and vice versa. This relationship holds for constan...
متن کاملSecrecy Capacity Region of a Multi-Antenna Gaussian Broadcast Channel with Confidential Messages
In wireless data networks, communication is particularly susceptible to eavesdropping due to its broadcast nature. Security and privacy systems have become critical for wireless providers and enterprise networks. This paper considers the problem of secret communication over the Gaussian broadcast channel, where a multi-antenna transmitter sends independent confidential messages to two users wit...
متن کاملOn the capacity of the multiple antenna broadcast channel
The capacity region of the multiple antenna (transmit and receive) broadcast channel is considered. We propose an outer bound to the capacity region by converting this nondegraded broadcast channel into a degraded one with users privy to the signals of users ordered below them. We extend our proof techniques in the characterization of the sum capacity of the multiple antenna broadcast channel t...
متن کاملOn the Compound MIMO Broadcast Channel
We consider the Gaussian multi-antenna compound broadcast channel where one transmitter transmits several messages, each intended for a different user whose channel realization is arbitrarily chosen from a finite set. Our investigation focuses on the behavior of this channel at high SNRs and we obtain the multiplexing gain of the sum capacity for a number of cases, and point out some implicatio...
متن کاملCapacity limits of MIMO channels
We provide an overview of the extensive recent results on the Shannon capacity of single-user and multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels. Although enormous capacity gains have been predicted for such channels, these predictions are based on somewhat unrealistic assumptions about the underlying time-varying channel model and how well it can be tracked at the receiver, as well a...
