An Achievable Rate-Distortion Region of Joint Identification and Sensing for Multiple Access Channels

Abstract

In contrast to Shannon transmission codes, the size of identification (ID) codes for discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) experiences doubly exponential growth with the block length when randomized encoding is used. Additional enhancements within the ID paradigm can be realized through supplementary resources such as quantum entanglement, common randomness (CR), and feedback. Joint transmission and sensing demonstrate significant benefits over separation-based methods. Inspired by the significant impact of feedback on the ID capacity, our work delves into the realm of joint ID and sensing (JIDAS) for state-dependent multiple access channels (SD-MACs) with noiseless strictly casual feedback. Here, the senders aim to convey ID messages to the receiver while simultaneously sensing the channel states. We establish a lower bound on the capacity-distortion region of the SD-MACs. An example shows that JIDAS outperforms the separation-based approach.

Identification via Gaussian Multiple Access Channels in the Presence of Feedback

Yaning Zhao, Wafa Labidi, Holger Boche +2 more

We investigate message identification over a K-sender Gaussian multiple access channel (K-GMAC). Unlike conventional Shannon transmission codes, the size of randomized identification (ID) codes experiences a doubly exponential growth in the code length. Improvements in the ID approach can be attained through additional resources such as quantum entanglement, common randomness (CR), and feedback. It has been demonstrated that an infinite capacity can be attained for a single-user Gaussian channel with noiseless feedback, irrespective of the chosen rate scaling. We establish the capacity region of both the K-sender Gaussian multiple access channel (K-GMAC) and the K-sender state-dependent Gaussian multiple access channel (K-SD-GMAC) when strictly causal noiseless feedback is available.

On Strong Secrecy for Multiple Access Channels With States and Causal CSI

Yiqi Chen, Tobias J. Oechtering, Mikael Skoglund +1 more

Strong secrecy communication over a discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple access channel (SD-MAC) with an external eavesdropper is investigated. The channel is governed by discrete memoryless and i.i.d. channel states, and the channel state information (CSI) is revealed to the encoders in a causal manner. The main results of this paper are inner and outer bounds of the capacity region, for which we investigate coding schemes incorporating wiretap coding and secret key agreements between the sender and the legitimate receiver. Two kinds of block Markov coding schemes are proposed. The first is a new coding scheme that uses backward decoding and the Wyner-Ziv coding, and the secret key is constructed from a lossy description of the CSI. The other is an extended version of an existing coding scheme for point-to-point wiretap channels with causal CSI. A numerical example shows that the achievable region given by the first coding scheme can be strictly larger than the second one. However, these two schemes do not outperform each other in general, and there exist some numerical examples in which each coding scheme achieves some rate pairs that cannot be achieved by another scheme. Our established inner bound reduces to some best-known results in the literature as special cases. We further investigate some capacity-achieving cases for state-dependent multiple access wiretap channels (SD-MAWCs) with degraded message sets. It turns out that the two coding schemes are both optimal in these cases.

Joint Sensing and Communication over Memoryless Broadcast Channels

Mehrasa Ahmadipour, Michèle Wigger, Mari Kobayashi

A memoryless state-dependent broadcast channel (BC) is considered, where the transmitter wishes to convey two private messages to two receivers while simultaneously estimating the respective states via generalized feedback. The model at hand is motivated by a joint radar and communication system where radar and data applications share the same frequency band. For physically degraded BCs with i.i.d. state sequences, we characterize the capacity-distortion region tradeoff. For general BCs, we provide inner and outer bounds on the capacity-distortion region, as well as a sufficient condition when it is equal to the product of the capacity region and the set of achievable distortion. Interestingly, the proposed synergetic design significantly outperforms a conventional approach that splits the resource either for sensing or communication.

The Simultaneous Identification Capacity of the Classical--Quantum Multiple Access Channel with Stochastic Encoders for Transmission

Stephen DiAdamo, Holger Boche

In [1], it is shown that the simultaneous identification capacity region for the discrete, memoryless, classical-quantum multiple access channel is equal to the transmission capacity region for codes using a deterministic encoding scheme. Here, we use transmission codes with a stochastic encoding scheme and show that the analogous capacity theorem holds. Further, by using stochastic encoders, the proof of achievability is highly simplified.

Deterministic Identification Over Channels With Power Constraints

Mohammad J. Salariseddigh, Uzi Pereg, Holger Boche +1 more

Identification capacity is developed without randomization at neither the encoder nor the decoder. In particular, full characterization is established for the deterministic identification (DI) capacity for the Gaussian channel and for the general discrete memoryless channel (DMC) with and without constraints. Originally, Ahlswede and Dueck established the identification capacity with local randomness given at the encoder, resulting in a double exponential number of messages. In the deterministic setup, the number of messages scales exponentially, as in Shannon’s transmission paradigm, but the achievable identification rates can be significantly higher than those of transmission. Ahlswede and Dueck further stated a capacity result for the deterministic setting of a DMC, but did not provide an explicit proof. In this paper, a detailed proof is given for both the Gaussian channel and the general DMC. The DI capacity of a Gaussian channel is infinite regardless of the noise.
