IMPROVING DATA RATES OF SHORT MESSAGE NOISY NETWORK CODING AND DECODE-AND FORWARD RELAYING

摘要

A method for communicating data in a network node is disclosed. A data transmission is received from a first network node at a second network node. The first network node is configured to perform decode-and-forward operations and the second network node configured to perform compression operations. A compression index to be used for conveying the data transmission is generated. The generated compression index is encoded using superposition coding. The compression index is sent to at least the first network node.
