Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the physical layer network coding (PNC) technique in a two-way relay channel (TWRC) where two source nodes send and receive data with each other via a relay node. In particular, we consider the communication scenario where packet length from the two sources is different from each other. We analyze the bit error rate (BER) of the received packet at the relay node according to degree of overlapping between two packets. The BER of the short packet remains unchanged regardless of the degree of overlapping since the entire packet is overlapped with the longer packet, while the BER of the longer packet becomes improved as the degree of overlapping decreases. Thus, we need a novel transmission scheme to enhance BER performance of the PNC technique in TWRC environments since the overall BER performance of the PNC technique at the relay node depends on the worse BER between two ovelapping packets' BERs.

본 논문에서는 두 노드가 하나의 중계 노드를 통하여 서로 데이터를 주고 받는 양방향 중계 채널에서 물리계층 네트워크 코딩을 적용하여 데이터 전송률을 향상시키는 기술을 고려한다. 특히, 두 노드가 데이터를 중계 노드로 전송할 때 패킷의 길이가 서로 다른 통신 상황을 고려한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통하여 두 노드가 전송한 길이가 다른 패킷들의 겹치는 정도에 따라 두 패킷 중 길이가 긴 패킷의 비트오류확률(bit error rate, BER)이 변화하는 것을 확인하였다. 길이가 짧은 패킷의 경우 전체 패킷이 항상 겹치므로 패킷의 겹침 정도와 상관없이 BER이 일정하고 길이가 긴 패킷의 경우 겹침정도가 작을수록 BER 성능이 좋아진다. 네트워크 코드가 적용된 패킷의 BER은 두 패킷 중 높은 BER을 갖는 패킷의 성능에 의존하므로 향상된 BER을 달성하기 위하여 새로운 방식의 전송방식이 필요함을 알 수 있다.
