Abstract: The multicast capacity of the Gaussian two-hop relay network with one source, $N$ relays, and $L$ destinations is studied. It is shown that a careful modification of the partial decode--forward coding scheme, whereby the relays cooperate through degraded sets of message parts, achieves the cutset upper bound within $(1/2)logN$ bits regardless of the channel gains and power constraints. This scheme improves upon a previous scheme by Chern and Ozgur, which is also based on partial decode--forward yet has an unbounded gap from the cutset bound for $Lge2$ destinations. When specialized to independent codes among relays, the proposed scheme achieves within $logN$ bits from the cutset bound. The computation of this relaxation involves evaluating mutual information across $L(N+1)$ cuts out of the total $L{2}^N$ possible cuts, providing a very simple linear-complexity algorithm to approximate the single-source multicast capacity of the Gaussian two-hop relay network.
