We consider a wireless relay network with one source, one relay and one destination, where communications between nodes are preformed via N orthogonal channels. This, for example, is the case when orthogonal frequency division multiplexing…

We consider the full-duplex two-way relay channel with direct link between two users and propose two coding schemes: a partial decode-forward scheme, and a combined decode-forward and compute-forward scheme. Both schemes use rate-splitting…
