Coded Bidirectional Relaying in Wireless Networks

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

The techniques for coded bidirectional or two-way relaying have received significant attention in the recent years [1–15]. The mechanisms for two-way relaying or, more general, multi-way relaying leverage on two conceptual blocks. The first conceptual block is the shared nature of the wireless communication medium. On the one hand, this implies that there is interference when multiple transmissions are occurring simultaneously. On the other hand, the wireless broadcasting is “cheap” in a sense that a single transmission can be received by multiple nodes. The second conceptual block is the idea of network coding. In short, the traditional design of communication networks observes the data flows as conventional commodity flows. Therefore, a routing node in the network essentially replicates the data packets from an incoming link to an outgoing link (or multiple links, in case of multicast). The network coding recognizes that a data flow is different from a physical commodity flow and generalizes the routing such that the data on a given outgoing link is a function of the data from two or more incoming links.
