A two-user symmetric Gaussian Interference Channel (IC) is considered in which a noiseless unidirectional link connects one encoder to the other. Having a constant capacity, the additional link provides partial cooperation between the encoders. It is shown that the available cooperation can dramatically increase the sum-capacity of the channel. This fact is proved based on comparison of proposed lower and upper bounds on the sum-capacity. Partitioning the data into three independent messages, namely private, common, and cooperative ones, the transmission strategy used to obtain the lower bound enjoys a simple type of Han-Kobayashi scheme together with a cooperative communication scheme. A Genie-aided upper bound is developed which incorporates the capacity of the cooperative link. Other upper bounds are based on the sum-capacity of the Cognitive Radio Channel and cut-set bounds. For the strong interference regime, the achievablity scheme is simplified to employ common and/or cooperative messages but not the private one. Through a careful analysis it is shown that the gap between these bounds is at most one and two bits per real dimension for strong and weak interference regimes, respectively. Moreover, the Generalized Degrees-of-Freedom of the channel is characterized.
