摘要: This paper investigates the decoding process of asynchronous convolutional-coded physical-layer network coding (PNC) systems. Specifically, we put forth a layered framework for PNC consisting three layers: symbol realignment layer, codeword and joint channel-decoding (Jt-CNC) layer. Our can deal with phase asynchrony (phase offset) arrival-time (symbol misalignment) between signals simultaneously transmitted by multiple sources. A salient feature this is that it handle both fractional integral misalignments. For instead Jt-CNC, previously proposed algorithms (e.g., XOR-CD reduced-state Viterbi algorithms) also be used our to general Jt-CNC algorithm, based on belief propagation, BER-optimal synchronous near optimal PNC. Extending beyond convolutional codes, further generalize algorithm all cyclic codes. simulation shows outperforms 2 dB phase-asynchronous symbol-asynchronous PNC, performs better than other two algorithms. Importantly, real wireless experimentation, implemented in prototype built USRP software radio platform. experiment decoder works well practice.
