We consider multiple transmitters aiming to communicate their source signals (e.g., images) over a multiple access channel (MAC). Conventional communication systems minimize interference by orthogonally allocating resources (time and/or…
A mechanism called switched feedback is introduced; under switched feedback, each channel output goes forward to the receiver(s) or back to the transmitter(s) but never both. By studying the capacity of the Multiple-Access Channel (MAC)…
In this work, we consider the problem of coding for the half-duplex non-orthogonal amplify-and-forward (NAF) cooperative channel where the transmitter to relay and the inter-relay links are highly reliable. We derive bounds on the diversity…
