Capacity for Half-Duplex Line Networks with Two Sources
arXiv:1006.0871 · doi:10.1109/ISIT.2010.5513750
Abstract
The focus is on noise-free half-duplex line networks with two sources where the first node and either the second node or the second-last node in the cascade act as sources. In both cases, we establish the capacity region of rates at which both sources can transmit independent information to a common sink. The achievability scheme presented for the first case is constructive while the achievability scheme for the second case is based on a random coding argument.
