In this paper, cooperative physical layer network coding (CPLNC) is introduced as an energy efficient transmission strategy for future wireless networks. Implementation framework for CPLNC is presented and its performance is analyzed in Rayleigh fading channels. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in saving energy, we incorporate CPLNC in two major energy-efficient routing algorithms. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in reducing energy consumption.
