The two-user Gaussian fading broadcast channel

This paper presents outerbounds for the two-user Gaussian fading broadcast channel. These outerbounds are based on Costa´s entropy power inequality (Costa-EPI) and are formulated mathematically as a feasibility problem. For classes of the two-user Gaussian fading broadcast channel where the outerbound is found to have a feasible solution, we find conditions under which a suitable inner and outer bound meet. For all such cases, this paper provides a partial characterization of the capacity region of the Gaussian two-user fading broadcast channel.
