Abstract

The capacity region is established for those discrete memoryless broadcast channels p(y,z \mid x) for which I(X;Y) \geq I(X;Z) holds for all Input distributions. The capacity region for this class of channels resembles the capacity region for degraded message sets considered by Korner and Marton.
