To improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of physical-layer network coding (PNC) in asymmetric two-way relay channels (TWRC), in this paper, we study a new PNC scheme named bi-quadrature physical-layer network coding (BQ-PNC) for Rayleigh flat fading TWRC. In BQ-PNC scheme, the two users employ quadrature carriers and the relay node use quadrature combining rather than XOR which is very common in other PNC schemes. We give the BER analysis of BQ-PNC and simulate the performance. Theoretical and simulation results show that the proposed scheme can significantly enhanced the BER performance, either in symmetric or asymmetric cases. Especially for uplink asymmetric TWRC, BQ-PNC can provide more than 4 dB gain compared with PNC scheme.
