On a Class of Discrete Memoryless Broadcast Interference Channels

We study a class of discrete memoryless broadcast interference channels (DM-BICs), where one of the broadcast receivers is subject to the interference from a point-to-point transmission. A general achievable rate region $\mathcal{R}$ based on rate splitting, superposition coding and binning at the broadcast transmitter and rate splitting at the interfering transmitter is derived. Under two partial order broadcast conditions {\em interference-oblivious less noisy} and {\em interference-cognizant less noisy}, a reduced form of $\mathcal{R}$ is shown to be equivalent to the region based on a simpler scheme that uses only superposition coding at the broadcast transmitter. Furthermore, the capacity regions of DM-BIC under the two partial order broadcast conditions are characterized respectively for the strong and very strong interference conditions.
