The capacity region of a broadcast channel consisting of k-receivers that lie in a less noisy sequence is an open problem, when k >= 3. We solve this problem for the case k=3. We prove that superposition coding is optimal for a class of broadcast channels with a sequence of less noisy receivers. T
We study the capacity regions of broadcast channels with binary inputs and symmetric outputs. We study the partial order induced by the more capable ordering of broadcast channels for channels belonging to this class. This study leads to some surprising connections regarding various notions of dominance of receivers. The results here also help us isolate some classes of symmetric channels where the best known inner and outer bounds differ.
We establish an information inequality that is intimately connected to the evaluation of the sum rate given by Marton's inner bound for two receiver broadcast channels with a binary input alphabet. This generalizes a recent result where the inequality was established for a particular channel, the binary skew-symmetric broadcast channel. The inequality implies that randomized time-division strategy indeed achieves the sum rate of Marton's inner bound for all binary input broadcast channels.
