A multicast algorithm based on network coding for wireless sensor network
Chong Eng Tan, Junni Zou · 2007
This paper proposes a multicast routing algorithm, which applies the mechanism of network coding, to achieve the max-flow transmission in sensor networks. The main characteristics of the proposed algorithm are that a multicast graph with redundant path is constructed and a sensor joins in it by destination driven. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively improve the multicast throughput of wireless sensor networks.
