In this paper, the joint network-channel coding performance of dual hop two-way multicast relay network is compared with one-way coded multicast relay scheme. Multicast Relay transmission scheme is a type of transmission scheme in which two fixed relay nodes contribute in the second hop of end-to-end transmission between BTS and a pair of Mobile stations. It is assumed that there is no direct link transmission between BTS and mobile stations due to high shadowing caused by obstacles or long distance between them. It is worth notifying that the end-to-end throughput achieved by one-way coded multicast scheme with diversity combining is better than two-way multicast scheme at low SNR values.
