Abstract

We study the achievable rate region of the multiple-input single-output (MISO) interference channel (IFC), under the assumption that all receivers treat the interference as additive Gaussian noise. We assume the case of two users, and that the channel state information (CSI) is only partially known at the transmitters. Our main result is a characterization of Pareto-optimal transmit strategies, for channel matrices that satisfy a certain technical condition. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.
