Multipath transmission through cooperative network-coded in IPN Internet based on Linear Block Codes
Liang Gou, Dongming Bian, Gengxin Zhang · 2013
It is significant to develop an approach to realizing reliable transmission in the uplinks of InterPlaNetary (IPN) Internet. Multipath cooperative communications provide a magnificent prospect in this scenario. Furthermore, network coding has ability to further improve the outage performance of cooperative communication systems. We investigate the properties of the uplinks in IPN Internet and propose a novel Cooperative Network-Coded scheme based on Linear Block Codes (CNC-LBC). This scheme employs network coding through constructing MDS (Maximum Distance Separable) linear block codes which selects coding coefficients over GF(q). Through the analyses and simulations, it can be shown that the outage probability performance and diversity order of the IPN Internet uplinks are improved significantly by using the CNC-LBC scheme.
