The Quantize & Forward (QF) scheme for two-way relaying is studied with a focus on its rate-distortion properties. A sum rate maximization problem is formulated and the associated quantizer optimization problem is investigated. An algorithm to approximately solve the problem is proposed. Under certain cases scalar quantizers maximize the sum rate.
Scalar Quantize & Forward (QF) schemes are studied for the Two-Way Relay Channel. Different QF approaches are compared in terms of rates as well as relay and decoder complexity. A coding scheme not requiring Slepian-Wolf coding at the relay is proposed and properties of the corresponding sum-rate optimization problem are presented. A numerical scheme similar to the Blahut-Arimoto algorithm is derived that guides optimized quantizer design. The results are supported by simulations.
