In this contribution, we investigate Near-Capacity Multi-user Network-coding (NCMN) based systems using an Irregular Convolutional Code, a Unity-Rate Code and M-ary Phase-Shift Keying. In the NCMN based systems, we consider a multiuser network in which the users cooperatively transmit independent information to a common base station (BS). Extrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts were used for designing the proposed NCMN scheme. The design principles presented in this contribution can be extended to a vast range of NCMN based systems using arbitrary channel coding schemes.
