Abstract:
This paper presents a design of two-way two-hop relay network using physical layer network coding (PNC) in which multiple antennas are used at all nodes. For transmission over the multiple-input multiple-output channels, the Alamouti's space-time block code (STBC) is used for transmission while linear detection is used for signal estimation at all nodes. In order to facilitate linear detection, we develop an equivalent multiuser STBC model for the proposed network and design the sum-and-difference matrix which is suitable for signal estimation. Simulation results show that the proposed network achieves diversity order 2 with polynomial complexity.
