Bounds on Network Coding and Multi-Rate Diversity Gain in Multicast Wireless Applications
|

| Abstract |
|
|
This paper investigates the fundamental limits on
the gain of joint Network Coding and link-layer transmission
Rate Diversity in wireless multicast applications. Network Coding
has been shown to improve throughput of wireless multicast in
various scenarios and applications. Those applications can further
exploit link-layer Rate Diversity, whereby individual nodes
can transmit at faster rates than the overall uniform rate at the
expense of smaller coverage area. The benefits of Rate Diversity
for wireless multicast have been demonstrated before, without
considering the inter-connections between network coding and
rate diversity. In this paper, we address the performance of
Network Coding and Multi-Rate Diversity in wireless multicast
networks and thereby derive formal bounds on the throughput
gain for such networks.
