  • Abstract
    The single rate 2-pair network coding problem is investigated. It is shown that a 2-pair network N = (V, E, {s1, s2},{t1, t2}) is solvable if and only if (A1,2 ∪ A2,1)∩(A1,1 ∩ A2,2) = 0, where Ai,j is the union of the minimal cuts of the point-to-point network Nij = (V, E, Si, tj). As a result, a cut-based algorithm can be obtained for solving the single rate 2-pair network coding problem.
