Abstract
The cognitive interference channel with unidirectional destination cooperation (CIFC-UDC) is a variant of the cognitive interference channel (CIFC) where the cognitive (secondary) destination not only decodes the information sent from its sending dual but also helps enhance the communication of the primary user. This channel is an extension of the original CIFC to achieve a win-win solution under the coexistence condition. The CIFC-UDC comprises a broadcast channel (BC), a relay channel (RC), as well as a partially cooperative relay broadcast channel (PCRBC), and can be degraded to any one of them. In this paper, we propose a new achievable rate region for the discrete memoryless CIFC-UDC which improves the previous results and includes the largest known rate regions of the BC, the RC, the PCRBC and the CIFC. A new outer bound is presented and proved to be tight for two classes of the CIFC-UDCs, resulting in the characterization of the capacity region. © 2011 IEEE.
