Distributed Joint Source-Channel Coding for Functions over a Multiple Access Channel

—In this paper we provide sufficient conditions for lossy transmission of functions of correlated data over a multiple access channel (MAC). The conditions obtained can be shown as generalized version of Yamamoto’s result [28]. We also obtain efficient joint source-channel coding schemes for transmission of discrete and continuous alphabet sources to recover the function values.
