Abstract

Two-way relay is potentially an effective approach to spectrum sharing and aggregation by allowing simultaneous bidirectional transmissions between source–destinations pairs. In this study, the two-way relay network, a class of four-unicast networks, where there are four source/destination nodes and two relay nodes, with each source sending a message to its destination, is studied. They show that without relay caching the total degrees of freedom (DoF) is bounded from above by , indicating that bidirectional links do not double the DoF (it is known that the total DoF of one-way relay network is 2). Further, they show that the DoF of is achievable for the two-way relay network with relay caching. Finally, even though the DoF of this network is no more than for generic channel gains, DoF of 4 can be achieved for a symmetric configuration of channel gains.
