Network coding (NC) enables us to mix two or more packets into a single coded packet at relay nodes and improve performances in wireless networks. Intra-session sliding window network coding is used at the source nodes and inter-session network coding is employed at the relay node to combine the recovered source packets of source nodes. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the network-coded...
In contrast to the network coding problem wherein the sinks in a network demand subsets of the source messages, in a network computation problem the sinks demand functions of the source messages. Similarly, in the functional index coding problem, the side information and demands of the clients include disjoint sets of functions of the information messages held by the transmitter instead of disjoint...
Satellite networks are expected to support multimedia traffic flows, offering high capacity with QoS guarantees. This paper deals with Multipath-TCP (MPTCP), which exploits multiple TCP connections using different paths in order to improve user’s throughput. In this study, MPTCP is combined with network coding to protect TCP transmissions from packet losses caused by ON/OFF channels in mobile satellite...
In an unreliable cluster-based, broadcast-oriented vehicular network setting, we investigate the transmission reliability and throughput performance of random network coding (RNC) as a function of the packet generate rate. Our proposed model consists of a source vehicle broadcasting packets to a set of receivers (i.e. one-to-many) over independent broadcast erasure channels. The source vehicle performs...
Caching is an effective way to reduce peak-hour network traffic congestion by storing some contents at user's local cache. Maddah-Ali and Niesen (MAN) initiated a fundamental study of caching systems by proposing a scheme (with uncoded cache placement and linear network coding delivery) that is provably optimal to within a factor 4.7. In this paper, when the cache contents and the user demands are...
Network coding can significantly enhance throughput and reliability in loss prone wireless networks. Adapting network coding redundancy is critical, since over-redundancy wastes network resources and hurts performance and under-estimated redundancy prevents decoding at destination. In this paper, we study the tradeoff between application tolerated loss rate and network overhead introduced by network...
Existing finite field network coding (FFNC) can be applied in networks where all users have the same data rate and can thus use the same modulation type. In most practical scenarios, different users typically have different data rates. With simple changes such as zero-padding and repetition to the data sequences of different users received at relays, it is still possible to employ the existing FFNC...
Network coding has become increasingly popular in time efficient data dissemination due to its inherent nature of broadcasting multiple data items in encoded form through a single broadcast. However, not much attention has been put forth on the efficiency of network coding when accessed data items' sizes can vary. In this work, we have investigated that when clients' accessed data items are of different...
In this paper, we propose a selective physical layer network coding (SPNC) scheme in two-way relay channel (TWRC) for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation over Rayleigh fading channels. Physical layer network coding (PNC) shows average throughput gain over traditional relaying in two-way relay systems, but not in all channel conditions PNC performs better than traditional relaying. The key...
Cooperative communication system is not able fully to solve the problems all about multipath fading, there are many parameters to decrease signal level to the receiver. The author brings the solution to embedded with network coding, this paper focus to enhance research about cooperative with network coding (CNC), using transparent protocol i.e amplify-and-forward (AF) with BPSK and QPSK modulation...
We realized an all-optical digital physical-layer network coding in Fiber-Wireless networks by employing two SOA-MZI XOR gates. Encoding and decoding operations are demonstrated for 1Gb/s data on 10GHz subcarrier and extended to 60GHz with simulations.
Road Side Units (RSUs) installed alongside the road in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) act as buffer points and alleviate the frequent vehicle-to-vehicle connectivity problem. In VANETs, submitting multi-item query is a common phenomenon, for instance, a query with required traffic information of multiple routes. Unlike the single item query, a multi-item query only be satisfied successfully if...
The issue of energy efficiency for processing multirate signal for wireless sensor network with the aim of increasing channel capacity and delay improvement is addressed. Different types of coding and modulation techniques are used to choose devices from different transmission rates. In a multichannel network the selection of link rate is difficult. In this paper we tried to focus on solution of link...
Network coding (NC) is a promising approach to efficiently enhance the robustness and recovery capacity in the Underwater acoustic sensor network (UWASN). However, the undesired transmission redundancy and additional resource limit the further development for NC with applications to the UWASN. Based on the analysis of intermediate nodes, a new approach called encoding anticipation mechanism for network...
Recently, several encryption schemes have been presented to Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC). The recent proposed lightweight security system for Network Coding is based upon protecting the Global Encoding Vectors (GEV) and using other vector to ensure the encoding process of RLNC at intermediate nodes. However, the current lightweight security scheme, presents several practical challenges to be...
Traditional routing mode is just responsible for receiving and forwarding data packets. The proposing of network coding offers a new research direction for the development of wireless sensor networks(WSN) [1]. Preliminary theoretical studies and experiments have shown the advantages of network coding which can improve throughput and reduce energy consumption in WSN [2,3]. By linear coding operation,...
In this paper, we propose a low complexity algorithm for decoding where network coding is deployed in client-server networks. We consider battery powered clients, so that minimizing their power consumptions is essential. Our focus is thus on developing a decoding algorithm that can reduce the computational complexity. Unlike general decoding algorithms that are based on Gaussian elimination, we propose...
Recently, a number of cryptographic security measures for random network coding (RNC) has been proposed in literature in response to the security treats to RNC; however most of them are computationally heavy. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a secure network coding scheme based on a homomorphic encryption scheme and discuss how to minimize its computational cost. Via experimental results,...
Index coding, or broadcasting with side information, is a network coding problem of most fundamental importance. In this problem, given a directed graph, each vertex represents a user with a need of information, and the neighborhood of each vertex represents the side information availability to that user. The aim is to find an encoding to minimum number of bits (optimal rate) that, when broadcasted,...
In this paper, we introduce a nonorthogonal multiple access scheme, called relay-aided multiple access (RAMA), which is based on network coding. This scheme is compared with a well-known scheme, nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA), which is based on superposition coding. Both the schemes can increase the spectral efficiency by supporting two users in the same frequency band and time slot. To compare...
