Abstract

We present sum-set inequalities specialized to the generalized degrees of freedom (GDoF) framework. These are information theoretic lower bounds on the entropy of bounded density linear combinations of discrete, power-limited dependent random variables in terms of the joint entropies of arbitrary linear combinations of new random variables that are obtained by power level partitioning of the original random variables. These bounds generalize the aligned image sets approach, and are useful instruments to obtain GDoF characterizations for wireless networks, especially with multiple antenna nodes, subject to arbitrary channel strength and channel uncertainty levels. To demonstrate the utility of these bounds, we consider various examples of interference and broadcast channels for which we obtain tight GDoF characterizations with the aid of sum-set inequalities.
