Abstract

We consider a wireless communication scenario with two transmit-receive pairs where each of the transmitters has a message for its corresponding receiver and only one of the receivers face interference from the undesired transmitter. In our research, we focused on devising optimal ways to manage this undesired interference and characterize the best communication rates for both transmit-receive pairs. Currently, this problem of interference is dealt with by restricting the two communications in di erent frequency or time bands. We explore the possibility of achieving better rates by allowing them to operate in the same band. Such channels were identi ed about 4 decades ago, but the maximum rate of communication when the transmitters have a power constraint is still unknown. In this work, we characterize the best rates for this channel under a reasonable practical constraint of using Gaussian signals at both the transmitters.
