  • Abstract
    The most well-known utility of network coding is the increase of throughput. The butterfly network is a famous example of this benefit. In this paper, we consider such a network as a noisy channel from the view of multi-user information theory. The butterfly channel combines the features of the multiple access channel, broadcast channel, and relay channel. We study the capacity of this channel with general network coding.
