Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems involving network coding (NC) atoms as building blocks of NC networks solve the scheduling problem in NC networks using a decomposition framework based on NC atoms. Ten physical-layer network coding (PNC) atoms and their straightforward network coding (SNC) counterparts are disclosed. SNC network can generate a transmission schedule based on SNC atoms. PNC network can generate transmission schedule based on PNC atoms. Performance evaluation results indicate that decomposition based on PNC atoms outperforms the traditional multi-hop (non-NC) scheduling by about 100% and can yield performance gain of 40% or more compared with decomposition based on the PNC TWRC atom alone. Further performance evaluation results indicate that decomposition based on SNC atoms outperforms the traditional multi-hop (non-NC) scheduling by about 33% and can yield performance gain of 14% or more compared with decomposition based on the SNC TWRC atom alone.
