Network Coding Applications

Network coding is an elegant and novel technique introduced at the turn of the millennium to improve network throughput and performance. It is expected to be a critical technology for networks of the future. This tutorial deals with wireless and content di ...

Information Flow Decomposition for Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

The famous min-cut, max-flow theorem states that a source node can send a commodity through a network to a sink node at the rate determined by the flow of the min-cut separating the source and the sink. Recently it has been shown that by linear re-encoding ...

On Average Throughput Benefits and Alphabet Size in Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

We examine the throughput benefits that network coding offers with respect to the average through- put achievable by routing, where the average throughput refers to the average of the rates that the indi- vidual receivers experience. We relate these benefi ...

On achievable information rates in single-source non-uniform demand networks

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

A non-uniform demand network consists of a source and a set of receivers that have different min-cut values from the source. We look at the case where the receivers would like to receive from the source a rate that is (approximately) equal to their min-cut ...

On Average Throughput Benefits and Alphabet Size in Network Coding

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

e analyze a special class of configurations with h sources and N receivers to demonstrate the throughput benefits of network coding and deterministic code design. We show that the throughput benefits network coding offers can increase proportionally to \sq ...
