Vempaty Prashanthi, D. Suresh Babu, C. V. Guru Rao · 2014
Network coding is a novel technique introduced to improve the throughput of the network. It is used in many areas such as internet, file download, wireless mesh networks, sensor networks. The main benefits of network coding are increasing the throughput reducing the delay, enhance robustness and adaptability. In this paper we discuss the concept of network coding, how it does, its areas of use and benefits. We also evaluate the gain obtained in different topologies using network coding, with different offered loads.
