Polar code‐based overlapping transmission scheme for Internet of Vehicles

Abstract

A polar code-based overlapping transmission scheme to improve channel utilisation for Internet of Vehicles is presented. In the presented scheme, different relay nodes (RNs) are allowed to send their packets to the destination node (DN) in the same time slot and frequency band. The signals from RNs to DN are overlapped and hence non-orthogonal. However, the information in the overlapped signals can be recovered by the proposed decoding algorithm. Numerical results show that the decoding algorithm performs well on information recovery in the presented transmission scheme.
