Broadband Analog Network Coding With Robust Processing for Two-Way Relay Networks

Abstract

In this letter, we study the robust processing for a single carrier two-way relay network with broadband analog network coding and imperfect channel state information. Based on a statistical model for channel estimation error, we derive the optimal coefficients of self interference cancellation and linear frequency domain equalization in the sense of minimizing the conditional mean square error given a channel estimate. Simulation results show that the proposed robust design can achieve better bit error rate performance than the conventional non-robust scheme.
