Capacity Regions of Two New Classes of Two-Receiver Broadcast Channels

Motivated by a simple broadcast channel, we generalize the notions of a less noisy receiver and a more capable receiver to an essentially less noisy receiver and an essentially more capable receiver, respectively. We establish the capacity regions of these classes by borrowing on existing techniques...

Description
Summary:Motivated by a simple broadcast channel, we generalize the notions of a less noisy receiver and a more capable receiver to an essentially less noisy receiver and an essentially more capable receiver, respectively. We establish the capacity regions of these classes by borrowing on existing techniques; however, these new classes contain additional interesting classes of broadcast channels, including the BSC/BEC broadcast channel. We also establish the relationships between the new classes and the existing classes.
