In this paper we examine possible ways that feedback can be used, in the context of systems with network coding capabilities. We illustrate, through a number of simple examples, that use of feedback can be employed for parameter adaptation to satisfy QoS r ...
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 following packet coding scheme: The coding node has a fixed, finite memory in which it stores packets formed from an incoming packet stream, and it sends packets formed from random linear combinations of its memory contents. We analyze the ...
We study analytically and experimentally the throughput of the packetized time-varying discrete erasure channel with feedback, which closely captures the behavior of many practical physical layers. We observe that the channel variability at different time ...
Wireless communication enables a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from commodity to tactical systems. Neighbor discovery (ND), that is, determining which devices are within direct radio communication, is a building block of network protocols and app ...
n source and destination pairs randomly located in an area extending linearly with n want to communicate with each other. Signals transmitted from one user to another at distance r apart are subject to a power attenuation of r^{-alpha} and random phase cha ...

During the last decade, the number of wireless devices like digital organizers, mobile phones and laptop computers has drastically increased. At the same time, several technologies, like Bluetooth, GPRS, or WiFi have become mature and offer a high-performa ...
Diversity embedded codes are opportunistic codes designed for the wireless fading channel. They are high-rate space-time codes which have embedded within them a high-diversity (low rate) code. In this paper, we focus on the application of diversity embedde ...
The throughput of wireless networks is known to scale poorly when the number of users grows. The rate at which an arbitrary pair of nodes can communicate must decrease to zero as the number of users tends to infinity, under various assumptions. One of them ...
