Reducing error in wireless, satellite, and space communication systems is critical. In the wireless communication system, various coding methods are employed on the data transferred to induce high bit error rates. High speed wireless networks, in order to address the large latency and degraded network throughput due to the retransmission triggered by frame loss, the purpose of this paper is to study and investigate the performance of fountain codes that is used to encode and decode the data stream in digital communication. This is an intelligent solution that encodes a number of redundant frames from the original frames upon link loss rate so that a receiver can effectively recover lost original frames without significant retransmissions. Since then, many digital Fountain coding methods have been invented such as Tornado codes, Luby transforms (LT) codes and Raptor codes.
