Relay and terminal in multi-pair two-way relay network and communication method thereof

摘要

A relay and a terminal in a multi-pair two-way network and a communication method thereof is provided. A communication method of a relay of a network including K transmit-and-receive pairs including a plurality of terminals, with the relay including M antennas and each of the terminals including N antennas, including accessing a codebook including codewords, the codebook being configured to enable effective channels from the K transmit-and-receive pairs to the relay to be aligned in independent dimensions, respectively, when the K transmit-and-receive pairs transmit signals simultaneously, each of the effective channels being aligned based on one of the codewords, selecting one or more of the codewords indicating the effective channels from the K transmit-and-receive pairs to the relay, respectively, and transmitting information associated with the selected codewords to corresponding ones of the K transmit-and-receive pairs.
