Analysis of the capacity region for the non-cooperative multiaccess channel with Rician fading

A Gaussian multiple access model is described in which the users do not cooperate, in the sense that they transmit their signals without trying to maximize the transmission of information, such as in a time-sharing environment. An information-theoretic approach is used to find the set of information rates at which the simultaneous reliable communication of the messages of each user is possible. The effect of Rician fading on the noncooperative multiple access channel is evaluated.<>
