Abstract:
A communication method for multi-hop multi-session transmission, includes forming groups of links operating in cooperation with one another to transmit data concurrently over sessions via relays, controlling interference between the groups, and scheduling the links for the sessions.
Abstract:
A communication method of an access point (AP) for retransmission of a multicast packet in a network including the AP and terminals, includes selecting a candidate terminal to be used to retransmit the multicast packet, from the terminals, and retransmitting the multicast packet, using the candidate terminal.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and system for relaying data using a plurality of relay nodes. The method may include obtaining a first channel matrix related to a first-hop channel and a second channel matrix related to a second-hop channel, generating an effective interference channel matrix based on the first channel matrix and the second channel matrix, and calculating a null space vector of the effective interference channel matrix.
Abstract:
A multiple multicast network system and method for ensuring reliability in such a network are provided. A multiple multicast method in a multiple multicast network system may include grouping terminals having data to be transmitted to each other in a group. The method transmits, by each of the terminals in the group, data of each of the terminals to the other terminals in the group. In response to receiving the data, the method provides, to the terminals in the group, as feedback, missing packet information, and generates, by a terminal among the terminals in the group, a secondary network-coded packet by performing network coding based on a successfully received packet and data of each of the terminal, and transmits the secondary network-coded packet to the other terminals in the group based on the missing packet information.
Abstract:
An access point (AP) and a terminal and corresponding methods are provided configured to retransmit a multicast packet based on feedback in a network. The network includes the AP and terminals. The communication method of the AP includes transmitting coded packet based multicast packets to the terminals, receiving, from a terminal, a feedback message indicating whether the multicast packets are received in response to the transmission, and retransmitting at least one multicast packet to the terminal in response to the feedback message.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and a terminal for a multi-hop network. The method includes determining whether channel information is necessary to transmit data processed based on a transmission scheme used in the multi-hop network and outputting a result indicative thereof. The method includes configuring channel information based on the transmission scheme, based on the result. The method further includes transmitting the configured channel information and the data processed using the configured channel information.
Abstract:
A source node includes a topology information extractor configured to acquire information of a channel state between nodes included in a multicast network, and extract topology information of the multicast network. The source node further includes a relay node selector configured to select, from the nodes, a relay node to relay a packet transmitted from the source node, based on the topology information.
Abstract:
A scheduling method and a scheduling apparatus based on physical layer network coding for bidirectional traffic are provided. The method includes setting up paths passing through a node to perform the physical layer network coding of the bidirectional traffic of sessions that pass through the node. The method further includes requesting, from neighboring nodes of the node, information to be used to schedule the sessions for the physical layer network coding. The method further includes scheduling the sessions for the physical layer network coding based on a queue differential of each session that is calculated based on the information, and a rate of each link of each session.
