• As a substantial means for improving throughtput, network coding has recently attracted much attention to apply in wireless multicast services. To guarantee the reliable multicast, packet retransmission schemes are employed. With one source, network coding has been well studied for the reliable multicast. But for the multicast cell with two sources, the presented schemes are not good enough to approach an impressive effect with the multiple receivers, demands and link situations. In this paper, for the 2-1-(D 1 ,D 2 ) multicast cell, which has two sources, one relay and two groups users with the receivers numbers of D 1 and D 2 , we propose three schemes to reduce the number of retransmission, which combine the lost packets and retransmit them with network coding, and obtains the least number of retransmissions. Some theoretical results are derived on the bandwidth efficiency of the traditional automatic repeat-request scheme (ARQ), network coding with ARQ scheme (XOR-ARQ) and the improved network coding with ARQ scheme (iXOR-ARQ). Compared with ARQ and XOR-ARQ, iXOR-ARQ is more advantageous on the bandwidth efficiency and the coding gain, which has been confirmed by both simulations and theoretical analysis.
