The Capacity Region of the Linear Shift Deterministic Y-Channel (1106.3402v1)
Published 17 Jun 2011 in cs.IT and math.IT
Abstract: The linear shift deterministic Y-channel is studied. That is, we have three users and one relay, where each user wishes to broadcast one message to each other user via the relay, resulting in a multi-way relaying setup. The cut-set bounds for this setup are shown to be not sufficient to characterize its capacity region. New upper bounds are derived, which when combined with the cut-set bounds provide an outer bound on the capacity region. It is shown that this outer bound is achievable, and as a result, the capacity region of the linear shift deterministic Y-channel is characterized.
