In this paper, we consider a general cellular two-way relay network, where a common multi-antenna relay station (RS) helps multiple base stations (BSs) to exchange messages with their served users simultaneously. This network model includes the thoroughly studied two-way relay (TWR) networks, multi-pair TWR networks and multi-user TWR cellular networks as special cases. We first develop a transceiver design for such a network under interference free constraints. The power allocation at the RS, BSs and users is then investigated to maximize the system sum rate. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through numerical examples. The results show that the proposed design outperforms the existing ones for those special TWR networks, and the sum rate is improved significantly through the proposed power allocation method compared to equal power allocation.
