Book excerpt: "Network coding is a network layer technique to improve transmission efficiency. Coding packets is especially beneficial in a wireless environment where the demand for radio spectrum is high. However, to fully realize the benefits of network coding two challenging issues that must be addressed are: (1) Guaranteeing separation of coded packets at the destination, and (2) Mitigating the extra coding/decoding delay. If the destination has all the needed packets to decode a coded packet, then separation failure can be averted. If the scheduling algorithm considers the arrival time of coding pairs, then the extra delay can be mitigated. In this paper, we develop a network coding method to address these (decoding and latency) issues for multi-source multi-destination unicast and multicast sessions. We use linear programming to find the most efficient coding design solution with guaranteed decodability. To reduce network delay, we develop a scheduling algorithm to minimize the extra coding/decoding delay. Our coding design method and scheduling algorithm are validated through experiments. Simulation results show improved transmission efficiency and reduced network delay"--Abstract, page iii.

Book excerpt: The network coding paradigm enhances transmission efficiency by combining information flows and has drawn significant attention in information theory, networking, communications and data storage. Instantly decodable network coding (IDNC), a subclass of network coding, has demonstrated its ability to improve the quality of service of time critical applications thanks to its attractive properties, namely the throughput enhancement, delay reduction, simple XOR-based encoding and decoding, and small coefficient overhead. Nonetheless, for point to multi-point (PMP) networks, IDNC cannot guarantee the decoding of a specific new packet at individual devices in each transmission. Furthermore, for device-to-device (D2D) networks, the transmitting devices may possess only a subset of packets, which can be used to form coded packets. These challenges require the optimization of IDNC algorithms to be suitable for different application requirements and network configurations. In this thesis, we first study a scalable live video broadcast over a wireless PMP network, where the devices receive video packets from a base station. Such layered live video has a hard deadline and imposes a decoding order on the video layers. We design two prioritized IDNC algorithms that provide a high level of priority to the most important video layer before considering additional video layers in coding decisions. These prioritized algorithms are shown to increase the number of decoded video layers at the devices compared to the existing network coding schemes. We then study video distribution over a partially connected D2D network, where a group of devices cooperate with each other to recover their missing video content. We introduce a cooperation aware IDNC graph that defines all feasible coding and transmission conflictfree decisions. Using this graph, we propose an IDNC solution that avoids coding and transmission conflicts, and meets the hard deadline for high importance video packets. It is demonstrated that the proposed solution delivers an improved video quality to the devices compared to the video and cooperation oblivious coding schemes. We also consider a heterogeneous network wherein devices use two wireless interfaces to receive packets from the base station and another device concurrently. For such network, we are interested in applications with reliable in-order packet delivery requirements. We represent all feasible coding opportunities and conflict-free transmissions using a dual interface IDNC graph. We select a maximal independent set over the graph by considering dual interfaces of individual devices, in-order delivery requirements of packets and lossy channel conditions. This graph based solution is shown to reduce the in-order delivery delay compared to the existing network coding schemes. Finally, we consider a D2D network with a group of devices experiencing heterogeneous channel capacities. For such cooperative scenarios, we address the problem of minimizing the completion time required for recovering all missing packets at the devices using IDNC and physical layer rate adaptation. Our proposed IDNC algorithm balances between the adopted transmission rate and the number of targeted devices that can successfully receive the transmitted packet. We show that the proposed rate aware IDNC algorithm reduces the completion time compared to the rate oblivious coding schemes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instantly Decodable Network Coding (IDNC) is a subclass of opportunistic network coding that has numerous desirable properties for a wide spectrum of applications, namely its faster decoding delay, simpler coding and decoding processes, and no decoding buffer requirements. Nonetheless, IDNC suffers from two main problems that may limit its attractiveness, as an implementable solution in future wireless networks, against full network coding (FNC), widely studied in the literature. First, it cannot guarantee the decoding of a new packet at each receiver in each transmission, which may severely affect its completion delay. Second, it requires full feedback in order to operate properly, which may be prohibitive for several practical network settings.To study the effect of feedback reduction, we formulate the completion delay minimization problem, for the cases of intermittent and lossy feedback, as extended SSP and partially observable SSP problems, respectively. We show that these new formulations have the same structure of the original SSP. We thus extend the designed algorithms to operate in intermittent and lossy feedback scenarios, after taking update decisions on the attempted and un-acknowledged packets. These redesigned algorithms are shown to achieve tolerable degradation for relatively low feedback frequencies and high feedback loss rates. iiiIn this thesis, we aim to reduce the effect of these drawbacks by studying the problems of minimizing the IDNC completion delay in full and limited feedback scenarios. Since completion delay cannot be optimized only through local decisions in each of the transmissions, we first study the evolution of the IDNC coding opportunities and determine the strategies maximizing them, not only for one transmission, but for all future transmissions. We then formulate the completion delay problem as a stochastic shortest path (SSP) problem, which turns out to be of extremely large dimensions that makes its optimal solution intractable. Nonetheless, we exploit the structure of this SSP and the evolution of the coding opportunities to design efficient algorithms, which outperform FNC in most multicast scenarios and achieve a near-optimal performance in broadcast scenarios. However, since FNC still outperforms IDNC in some network scenarios, we design an adaptive selection algorithm that efficiently selects, between these two schemes, the one that achieves the smaller completion delay.

Book excerpt: This book discusses an efficient random linear network coding scheme, called BATched Sparse code, or BATS code, which is proposed for communication through multi-hop networks with packet loss. Multi-hop wireless networks have applications in the Internet of Things (IoT), space, and under-water network communications, where the packet loss rate per network link is high, and feedbacks have long delays and are unreliable. Traditional schemes like retransmission and fountain codes are not sufficient to resolve the packet loss so that the existing communication solutions for multi-hop wireless networks have either long delay or low throughput when the network length is longer than a few hops. These issues can be resolved by employing network coding in the network, but the high computational and storage costs of such schemes prohibit their implementation in many devices, in particular, IoT devices that typically have low computational power and very limited storage. A BATS code consists of an outer code and an inner code. As a matrix generalization of a fountain code, the outer code generates a potentially unlimited number of batches, each of which consists of a certain number (called the batch size) of coded packets. The inner code comprises (random) linear network coding at the intermediate network nodes, which is applied on packets belonging to the same batch. When the batch size is 1, the outer code reduces to an LT code (or Raptor code if precode is applied), and network coding of the batches reduces to packet forwarding. BATS codes preserve the salient features of fountain codes, in particular, their rateless property and low encoding/decoding complexity. BATS codes also achieve the throughput gain of random linear network coding. This book focuses on the fundamental features and performance analysis of BATS codes, and includes some guidelines and examples on how to design a network protocol using BATS codes.

Book excerpt: Network coding, a relatively new area of research, has evolved from the theoretical level to become a tool used to optimize the performance of communication networks – wired, cellular, ad hoc, etc. The idea consists of mixing “packets” of data together when routing them from source to destination. Since network coding increases the network performance, it becomes a tool to enhance the existing protocols and algorithms in a network or for applications such as peer-to-peer and TCP. This book delivers an understanding of network coding and provides a set of studies showing the improvements in security, capacity and performance of fixed and mobile networks. This is increasingly topical as industry is increasingly becoming more reliant upon and applying network coding in multiple applications. Many cases where network coding is used in routing, physical layer, security, flooding, error correction, optimization and relaying are given – all of which are key areas of interest. Network Coding is the ideal resource for university students studying coding, and researchers and practitioners in sectors of all industries where digital communication and its application needs to be correctly understood and implemented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Informatik - Internet, neue Technologien, Note: 1,3, Fachhochschule Heidelberg, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Network coding describes a technique to perform coding operations on packet contents throughout the network, increasing the information density of a single transmission and therefore increasing network throughput. This book describes the portation of an application of network coding onto an embedded linux. It therefore describes the software COPE, which is a network coding implementation based on the modular software router CLICK. This router is also introduced. Then the book explains the embedded Linux system OpenWRT and the portation of a software onto that system as well as the compilation and deployment of a new firmware image. Then the experiment and its results are explained. The work then introduces novel schemes of network coding based on the idea behind COPE. These schemes are based on the improvement of resience rather than throughput.

Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the latest research and development of new technologies for cognitive radio, mobile communications, and wireless networks. The contributors discuss the research and requirement analysis and initial standardization work towards 5G cellular systems and the capacity problems it presents. They show how cognitive radio, with the capability to flexibly adapt its parameters, has been proposed as the enabling technology for unlicensed secondary users to dynamically access the licensed spectrum owned by legacy primary users on a negotiated or an opportunistic basis. They go on to show how cognitive radio is now perceived in a much broader paradigm that will contribute to solve the resource allocation problem that 5G requirements raise.

Download or read book Throughput and Delay Optimization of Linear Network Coding in Wireless Broadcast written by Mingchao Yu and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear network coding (LNC) is able to achieve the optimal throughput of packet-level wireless broadcast, where a sender wishes to broadcast a set of data packets to a set of receivers within its transmission range through lossy wireless links. But the price is a large delay in the recovery of individual data packets due to network decoding, which may undermine all the benefits of LNC. However, packet decoding delay minimization and its relation to throughput maximization have not been well understood in the network coding literature. Motivated by this fact, in this thesis we present a comprehensive study on the joint optimization of throughput and average packet decoding delay (APDD) for LNC in wireless broadcast. To this end, we reveal the fundamental performance limits of LNC and study the performance of three major classes of LNC techniques, including instantly decodable network coding (IDNC), generation-based LNC, and throughput-optimal LNC (including random linear network coding (RLNC)). Various approaches are taken to accomplish the study, including 1) deriving performance bounds, 2) establishing and modelling optimization problems, 3) studying the hardness of the optimization problems and their approximation, 4) developing new optimal and heuristic techniques that take into account practical concerns such as receiver feedback frequency and computational complexity. Key contributions of this thesis include: - a necessary and sufficient condition for LNC to achieve the optimal throughput of wireless broadcast; - the NP-hardness of APDD minimization; - lower bounds of the expected APDD of LNC under random packet erasures; - the APDD-approximation ratio of throughput-optimal LNC, which has a value of between 4/3 and 2. In particular, the ratio of RLNC is exactly 2; - a novel throughput-optimal, APDD-approximation, and implementation-friendly LNC technique; - an optimal implementation of strict IDNC that is robust to packet erasures; - a novel generation-based LNC technique that generalizes some of the existing LNC techniques and enables tunable throughput-delay tradeoffs.

This book was released on 2011-02-21 with total page 691 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The high level of technical detail included in standards specifications can make it difficult to find the correlation between the standard specifications and the theoretical results. This book aims to cover both of these elements to give accessible information and support to readers. It explains the current and future trends on communication theory and shows how these developments are implemented in contemporary wireless communication standards. Examining modulation, coding and multiple access techniques, the book is divided into two major sections to cover these functions. The two-stage approach first treats the basics of modulation and coding theory before highlighting how these concepts are defined and implemented in modern wireless communication systems. Part 1 is devoted to the presentation of main L1 procedures and methods including modulation, coding, channel equalization and multiple access techniques. In Part 2, the uses of these procedures and methods in the wide range of wireless communication standards including WLAN, WiMax, WCDMA, HSPA, LTE and cdma2000 are considered. An essential study of the implementation of modulation and coding techniques in modern standards of wireless communication Bridges the gap between the modulation coding theory and the wireless communications standards material Divided into two parts to systematically tackle the topic - the first part develops techniques which are then applied and tailored to real world systems in the second part Covers special aspects of coding theory and how these can be effectively applied to improve the performance of wireless communications systems
Download or read book Modulation level Coding for Wireless Network Coding written by Ibrahim M. Al-Solami and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When intermediate nodes encode messages in wireless network coding, a question arises: Which modulation scheme should be used to broadcast the encoded message? Should it be limited to a receiver with a low modulation-level requirement to maintain an acceptable BER or should it be broadcasted at the desired modulation-level of a receiver with a higher rate requirement? Such conflicting requirements typically arise when one receiver has a low channel capacity while the other has a higher one. Recently, the deployment of network coding in wireless networks has attracted significant research attention, mainly due to the capability of network coding to improve throughput and save energy. However, a challenging problem in wireless network coding is to determine which modulation scheme to employ in the broadcast phase when receivers have diverse modulation scheme requirements, e.g., Node A may desire an 8-PSK modulation scheme on the broadcasted signal, while Node B may require a QPSK on the same broadcasted signal. In this thesis, we introduce a new coding scheme aimed at solving the diverse modulation problem. The scheme is based on coding information such that a receiver with a high modulation-level requirement can decode more information from a broadcasted signal than a receiver with a low one. Several codes have been designed for various combinations of modulation schemes. Analytical studies have been carried out to quantify the performance of the proposed scheme. Extensive simulations have been conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed scheme and validate the accuracy of our analytic model.
