This correspondence considers communication over two Gaussian channels with additive state interference and noiseless output feedback-the multiple access channel (MAC) and the augmented broadcast channel (ABC) (a special class of the physically degraded broadcast channel). The state interference is assumed to be available noncausally at the transmitters. Deterministic coding schemes for these two channels were suggested by Ozarow when there is no state present. Recently, Merhav and Weissman derived an optimal feedback coding scheme for the single-user Gaussian channel with additive state interference. Combining ideas from these two schemes, we extend Ozarow's coding algorithms to the state-dependent case, showing that the capacity regions of the MAC and the ABC are not affected, even though not all parts of the system have knowledge of the state. The proposed schemes attain a better error performance and reduce the coding complexity with respect to the standard random binning coding technique.
