Abstract
A physical layer network coding architecture is provided to increase downlink capacity for satellite network architectures. For instance, a network coding controller may perform a XOR network coding operation on FEC encoded information received from a first terminal and second terminal, and broadcast a single downlink message containing the XOR network coded information to the first and second terminal.
