Broadcast
and multicast operations which disseminate information network wide are
important features in multi-hop wireless networks. This work shows how
network coding can be applied in wireless in ad hoc networks. We focus
on broadcast traffic and design a network coding-based scheme that we
compare against simpler solutions, through extensive simulations. Our
goal is to assess the performance of the proposed network coding scheme
in wireless ad hoc networks in both realistic MAC and physical are
considered and when mobility of nodes is considered as well. The
performance analysis of the proposed network coding scheme on
broadcasting traffic is strongly depends on the network node density and
the generation size. Network coding brings no benefits to be
implemented and run in sparse networks. On the other hand, network
coding performs well and has significant gains in terms of end-to-end
packet loss probability in dense networks. Moreover, achieved results
show that the protocol delivers broadcast data reliably with minimal
network overhead, by eliminating redundant data transmissions, even
under adverse network conditions.
