Ser-minimization Relay Selection for Two-way Relay Channels with Physical Layer Network Coding

This paper explores the relay selection scheme for two-way relay channels with physical layer network coding (PNC), where two end nodes exchange information via a selected relay node with the minimal symbol error rate (SER) performance among multiple candidate relay nodes. To reduce the computational complexity, we also propose a suboptimal minimal SER-based relay selection. The end-to-end SER ...

Physical Layer Network Coding

A main distinguishing feature of a wireless network compared with a wired network is its broadcast nature, in which the signal transmitted by a node may reach several other nodes, and a node may receive signals from several other nodes simultaneously. Rather than a blessing, this feature is treated more as an interference-inducing nuisance in most wireless networks today (e.g., IEEE 802.11). Th...

Single Relay Selection for Bidirectional Cooperative Networks with Physical - Layer Network Coding

© 2012 ETRI Journal, Volume 34, Number 1, February 2012 To serve the growing demand of the bidirectional information exchange, we propose a single relay selection (RS) scheme for physical-layer network coding (PNC) in a bidirectional cooperative network consisting of two sources and multiple relays. This RS scheme selects a single best relay by maximizing the bottleneck of the capacity region o...

SER - Based Relay Selection for Two - Way Relaying with Physical Layer Network Coding

© 2013 ETRI Journal, Volume 35, Number 2, April 2013 To enhance the symbol error rate (SER) performance of the two-way relay channels with physical layer network coding, this letter proposes a relay selection scheme, in which the relay with the maximal minimum distance between different points in its constellation among all relays is selected to assist two-way transmissions. We give the closed-...
