Abstract

An interference channel is a communication medium shared by M sender-receiver pairs. Transmission of information from each sender to its corresponding receiver interferes with the communications between the other senders and their receivers. This corresponds to a frequent situation in communications, and defines anM-dimensional capacity region. In this paper, we obtain general bounds on the capacity region for discrete memoryless interference channels and for linear-superposition interference channels with additive white Gaussian noise. The capacity region is determined in special cases.
