In this paper, we study the two-user Gaussian fading Multiple Access Channel (MAC) with cooperative encoders. Two different scenarios are studied: the Gaussian fading MAC with a common message, and the Gaussian fading MAC with conferencing encoders. The throughput capacity region of these channels with partial Channel State Information (CSI) at the transmitters (CSIT) and perfect CSI at the receiver (CSIR) is established. For the Gaussian fading systems with only CSIR (transmitters have no access to CSIT), some numerical examples and simulation results are provided for Rayleigh fading models.
