Function computation via subspace coding
Nikhil Karamchandani, Lorenzo Keller, Christina Fragouli, Massimo Franceschetti · 2010
This paper considers function computation in a network where intermediate nodes perform randomized network coding, through appropriate choice of the subspace codebooks at the source nodes. Unlike traditional network coding for computing functions, that requires intermediate nodes to be aware of the function to be computed, our designs are transparent to the intermediate node operations.
