Network Coding for 5G Network and D2D Communication
Luiz F. M. Vieira, Marcos A. M. Vieira · 2017
Unlike traditional routing where packets are only stored and forward, network coding allows packets to mix together. New packets can be formed by combining other packets. This technique can provide benefits to the network. Network coding has been shown to improve network throughput, reduce energy consumption, improve network robustness and achieve the network capacity.
