The two-user discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple-access channel (MAC) models a scenario in which two encoders transmit independent messages to a single receiver via a MAC whose channel law is governed by the pair of encoders'…

It is known that, as opposed to point-to-point channel, separate source and channel coding is not optimal in general for sending correlated sources over multiuser channels. In some works joint source-channel coding has been investigated for…
