Abstract :
The two-user broadcast erasure channel with feedback and memory is analyzed. It is shown that memory increases the capacity region for this scenario. Several heuristic algorithms are proposed and analyzed. Although these schemes do not achieve capacity, significant gains can be observed compared to the memoryless case.
