We present a necessary and sufficient condition for $1/2$ degree of freedom for each user in constant $K$-user single-antenna interference channels. This condition applies to all channel topologies, i.e., to fully-connected channels as well…
It is well known that in K-user constant single-antenna interference channels K/2 degrees of freedom (DoF) can be achieved for almost all channel matrices. Explicit conditions on the channel matrix to admit K/2 DoF are, however, not…
