Abstract :
The radio frequency spectrum for wireless communications is a finite and scarce resource, there is a fundamental limit on the radio channels which can be made available to mobile communication. We study the capacity limit of a wireless system with multiple receivers using an information theoretic model. We showed that the capacity region expands and varies between two boundaries depending on the relative positions of the users
