Abstract

To improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of physical-layer network coding (PNC) in data length asymmetric two-way relay channels (TWRC), a new PNC scheme named combined denoise-and-forward and superposition coded physical-layer network coding (DNF-SC-PNC) is proposed, and the decoding algorithm of the scheme is improved. In the new scheme, the mixed information is denoised and superposed at the relay node, which will be broadcasted to the destination nodes. The destination nodes can use successive interference cancellation (SIC) or likelihood rate (LLR) algorithm for decoding. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that DNF-SC-PNC can provide better BER performance and better throughput rate performance when the data length is asymmetric. Furthermore, we also proved that LLR algorithm can provide better performance than SIC algorithm in data length asymmetric TWRC.
