The Base Station (BS) or access point is the building block of wireless networks, so, we propose exploiting it together with the Network Coding (NC) principle, to reduce the number of sequential network decoding steps for Multi-Source NC (MSNC) based on NC of bits independently per unit time for different users, versus NC of bits within a packet and from different users, exploiting temporal NC, not just spatial. Simulation results, for both Amplify-and-Forward (AF) and Decode-and-Forward (DF) relay schemes using Partial Unit Memory-based Turbo Code (PUMTC) based on (8,4,3,8) component codes, confirm that combining high-performance non-binary PUMTC and NC in the proposed schemes can achieve valuable gain in Bit Error Rate (BER) performance compared to MSNC based on NC of bits independently per unit time.
