摘要:
Described is continuous network coding, in which a relay sends probability data comprising a continuous number for use as parity data. The node receives streams of bits sent from sources towards a destination, and computes the probability data based on current noise data and/or fading data. A selected set of the bits (all or some subset thereof) are combined, e.g., XOR-ed or concatenated, and send to the destination. Phase modulation is performed to convey probability information based on the probability data. The destination demodulates the signal to obtain the probability information, and combines the probability information with the data directly received from sources to perform joint decoding. The number of bits in the set of selected bits may be adaptively chosen based on current channel conditions, e.g., increased when the channel conditions from the sources directly to a destination are poor relative to the channel conditions via the relay.

A network can include a number of nodes that link a source node to a sink node. When a first node in a network sends a packet to its downstream node, this information is also received at its upstream node. In response to learning that the first node has sent a packet, the upstream node sends another packet to the first node. In essence, a pull-based transmission approach is used to mitigate congestion and address the funneling effect in data transmission networks such as wireless video sensor networks.

Techniques for data gathering in large-scale wireless sensor networks are described. A data collection device receives aggregate data from at least one sensor node of a group of N sensor nodes. The aggregate data includes M weighted sums. Each of the M weighted sums includes a respective sum of N products each of which being a product of a respective coefficient and a sensor reading from a respective one of the N sensor nodes. M and N are positive integers and M is less than N. Computation is performed on the aggregate data to recover sensor readings from the N sensor nodes.

Described herein is technology for, among other things, natural network coding in a wireless mesh network. The technology involves wireless mesh network systems, methods and devices based on the natural network coding. By encoding signals in their natural forms using their channel strengths, more efficient transmission of signals is possible in the wireless mesh network.

A projection code is applied to encode symbols as weighted arithmetic sums of approximately random subsets of binary source bits. Pairs of the symbols are combined to form constellation points, which are sequentially mapped through a constellation to modulate a data signal.

Described is a technology by which a roadside-to-vehicle communication system may be implemented, including via a stateful scheduling with network coding scheme that enhances network capacity. Moving vehicles request and receive data from a roadside access points. Each of the access points operate a stateful scheduling algorithm that serves multiple vehicles by integrating network coding within a timeslot. In one aspect, the state of each vehicle's previously received and retained data is obtained, and used to enhance network capacity by combining as many packets as possible for multiple recipients in network coding.
