Cooperative/Relay Communications
COOPERATIVE communications has triggered enormous research interest in understanding the performance of different multi-way relay channels (MWRCs). The MWRC can be viewed as an extension of the two-way relay channel (TWRC), where two users exchange their information via a relay. In multi-way relay scenario, several users try to exchange their information with each other with the help of relays, where direct links between the source nodes whether exist or are not considered either due to large scale path loss or shadowing effects. Similar to two-way relaying, self interference can be removed by exploring the priori information at the source nodes.

We study the multi-way relaying scenario with M users who want to exchange their information with each other with the help of N relays (N M) among them. There are no direct transmission channels between any two users. Particularly, all users transmit their signals to all relays in the first time slot and M − 1 relays are selected later to broadcast their mixture signals during the following M − 1 time slots to all users. Compared to the transmission with the help of single relay, the multi-way relaying scenario reduces the transmit time significantly from 2M to M time slots.
