Sum-Rate Capacity for Symmetric Gaussian Multiple Access Channels With Feedback

The feedback sum-rate capacity is established for the symmetric $J$ -user Gaussian multiple-access channel (GMAC). The main contribution is a converse bound that combines the dependence-balance argument of Hekstra and Willems (1989) with a variant of the factorization of a convex envelope of Geng and Nair (2014). The converse bound matches the achievable sum-rate of the Fourier-Modulated Estimate Correction strategy of Kramer (2002).
