In this paper, two way relaying networks using physical layer network coding utilizing a multicarrier scheme with Gaussian waveforms are analyzed. In two way relaying a multiple access phase is applied, where both users transmit their messages simultaneously on the same resources to an assisting relay. Here, a superposition of both signals containing the influence of the individual channels is received. The additional interference introduced by the non-orthogonal Gaussian filter is treated by a linear Equalizer. To reduce complexity the equalizer is simplified to treat adjacent symbols in the time-frequency grid, only. Finally, the overall performance of different decoding strategies is analyzed by a link level simulation.}, booktitle={10th International ITG Conference on Systems, Communications and Coding (SCC 2015)} }
