Novel Nested Convolutional Lattice Codes for Multi-Way Relaying Systems over Fading Channels

In this paper, we focus on the realization of multiple interpretations (MI) in multi-way relay channels (MWRC) with fading, where multiple sources communicate with each other with the help of a relay. We first propose a novel nested convolutional lattice codes (NCLC) over the finite field, which can achieve the MI for each source in two time slots. Then we derive a theoretical upper bound for the codeword error rate (WER) of the NCLC. We further optimize our NCLC by developing a code design criterion which minimizes the derived WER. In simulations, we construct a specific NCLC based on our code design criterion. Simulation results show that our code can realize MI for each source in two time slots, and validate the derived upper bound in the high normalized signal-to-effective-noise ratio (SENRnorm) region.
