Communication Sécurisée et Coopération dans les Réseaux sans Fil avec Interférences and of their Inverter

摘要

In this thesis, we conduct an information-theoretic study on two important aspects of wireless communications: the improvement of data throughput in interference-limited networks by means of cooperation between users and the strengthening of the security of transmissions with the help of feedback.In the first part of the thesis, we focus on the simplest model that encompasses interference and cooperation, the Interference Relay Channel (IRC). Our goal is to characterize within a fixed number of bits the capacity region of the Gaussian IRC, independent of any channel conditions. To do so, we derive a novel outer bound and two inner bounds. Specifically, the outer bound is obtained thanks to a nontrivial extension we propose of the injective semideterministic class of channels, originally derived by Telatar and Tse for the Interference Channel (IC).In the second part of the thesis, we investigate the Wiretap Channel with Generalized Feedback (WCGF) and our goal is to provide a general transmission strategy that encompasses the existing results for different feedback models found in the literature. To this end, we propose two different inner bounds on the capacity of the memoryless WCGF. We first derive an inner bound that is based on the use of joint source-channel coding, which introduces time dependencies between the feedback outputs and the channel inputs through different time blocks. We then introduce a second inner bound where the feedback link is used to generate a key that encrypts the message partially or completely.
