Algorithm for Multisource Multicast with Network Coding over Multi-hop Wireless Networks
Lixin Han · 2015
We first presented a network coding based model for multisource multicast,in which the theory of back-pressure plays an important role in flow scheduling.Then we proposed a heuristic algorithm MulSrc which is compatible for802.11 DCF MAC.It is especially well-suited for applications with low-loss,low-latency constraints.The use of network coding transparently implements both localized loss recovery and path diversity with low overhead.Simulation results show that our protocol outperforms the same kind protocol CodeCast and MMForests with multiflows.
