Efficient Broadcasting Using Network Coding

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

We consider the problem of broadcasting in an ad-hoc wireless network, where all nodes of the network are sources that want to transmit information to all other nodes. Our figure of merit is energy efficiency, a critical design parameter for wireless netwo ...

Low-complexity Algorithms for Energy Efficient Broadcasting in Wireless Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

We consider the problem of broadcasting in an ad hoc wireless network, where all nodes of the network are sources that want to transmit information to all other nodes. Our figure of merit is energy efficiency, a critical design parameter for wireless net- ...

Network-Coded Broadcast: from Canonical Networks to Random Topologies

Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

We consider the problem of finding the minimum number of transmissions in an ad-hoc network for all-to-all broadcasting using network coding. This work generalizes previous results for canonical topologies such as the circle and the wrap around grid to the ...

Robust Routing for Dynamic Wireless Networks Based on Stable Embeddings

Matthias Grossglauser, Suhas Diggavi, Dominique Florian Tschopp, Jörg Widmer

Routing packets is a central function of multi-hop wireless networks. Traditionally, there have been two paradigms for routing, either based on the geographical coordinates of the nodes (geographic routing), or based on the connectivity graph (topology-bas ...

Wireless routing based on an embedding of the connectivity graph is a very promising technique to overcome shortcomings of geographic routing and topology-based routing. This is of particular interest when either absolute coordinates for geographic routing ...

We present an architecture for implementing a wireless physical layer in a packet-based network simulator. We integrate this architecture in the popular ns-2 network simulator and use it to implement an impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) physical layer ...

We show that network coding allows to realize energy savings in a wireless ad-hoc network, when each node of the network is a source that wants to transmit information to all other nodes. Energy efficiency directly affects battery life and thus is a critic ...

We consider the design of the MAC layer for low power, low data-rate, impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) networks. In such networks, the primary concern is energy consumption rather than rate efficiency. We explore several dimensions such as power cont ...

Network Coding: An Instant Primer

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

Network coding is a new research area that may have interesting applications in practical networking systems. With network coding, intermediate nodes may send out packets that are linear combinations of previously received information. There are two main b ...

An Architecture for Wireless Simulation in NS-2 Applied to Impulse-Radio Ultra-Wide Band Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz, Jörg Widmer

We present an architecture for implementing a wireless physical layer in a packet-based network simulator. We have integrated this architecture in the popular ns-2 network simulator and used it to implement an impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB) physica ...
