This study proposes an optimal time allocation scheme for two-way relay channel (TWRC) using the physical-layer network coding (PNC). In other words, this study analytically determines the optimal transmit time durations for the first and the second time slot, which maximise the achievable sum rate under a sum time constraint for a given squared magnitude of the channel coefficients and transmit power values. Numerical results show that the achievable sum rate for the proposed optimal time allocation is greater than or equal to that for equal time allocation.
