IEEE 802.11s-based infrastructure Wireless Mesh Networks (iWMNs) are envisaged as a promising solution to provide ubiquitous wireless Internet access. The limited network capacity is a problem mainly caused by the medium contention between mesh users and the mesh access points (MAPs), which gets worst when the mesh clients employ the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). To mitigate this problem, we use wireless network coding (WNC) in the MAPs. The aim of this proposal is to take advantage of the network topology around the MAPs, to alleviate the contention and maximize the use of the network capacity. We evaluate WNC when is used in MAPs. We model the formation of coding opportunities and, using computer simulations, we evaluate the formation of such coding opportunities. The results show that as the users density grows, the coding opportunities increase up to 70%; however, at the same time, the coding delay increments significantly. In order to reduce such delay, we propose to adaptively adjust the time that a packet can wait to catch a coding opportunity in an MAP. We assess the performance of moving-average estimation methods to forecast this adaptive sojourn time. We show that using moving-average estimation methods can significantly decrease the coding delay since they consider the traffic density conditions.

This work proposes a model to solve the problem of Network Coding over a one-session multicast network. The model is based on a system of restrictions that defines the packet flows received in the sink nodes as functions of the outgoing flows from the source node. A multicast network graph is used to derive a directed labeled line graph (DLLG). The successive powers of the DLLG adjacency matrix to the convergence in the null matrix permits the construction of the jump matrix Source-Sinks. In its reduced form, this shows the dependency of the incoming flows in the sink nodes as a function of the outgoing flows in the source node. The emerging packets for each outgoing link from the source node are marked with a tag that is a linear combination of variables that corresponds to powers of two. Restrictions are built based on the dependence of the outgoing and incoming flows and the packet tags as variables. The linear independence of the incoming flows to the sink nodes is mandatory. The method is novel because the solution is independent of the Galois field size where the packet contents are defined.

네트워크 부호화는 중간 노드에서 데이터의 변환을 허용함으로써 전송률 높일 수 있는 방식이지만, 중간 노드에 대한 도청이나 데이터 변조에 취약해지는 문제가 발생한다. 이를 위해 정보이론적 관점에서 또는 암호학적 관점에서 도청 또는 데이터 변조에 저항할 수 있는 다양한 부호화 방식들이 제안되었다. 최근에 암호학적 관점에서 랜덤 네트워크 부호화에도 안전한 네트워크 부호화 방식이 제안되었지만, 안전한 해쉬 함수와 같은 암호학적 도구들의 사용은 센서 노드와 같은 낮은 연산능력을 보유한 장비에서는 적용이 어려운 문제를 지닌다. 이 논문에서는 선형 변환 및 간단한 테이블 룩업을 기반으로 랜덤 네트워크 부호화 사용할 때 n개의 패킷 중에서 공격자가 최대 n-1 개의 패킷을 도청하는 경우에도 n-1 개까지의 사용자 메시지를 동시에 안전하게 전송할 수 있는 안전한 네트워크 부호화 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 방식은 암호학적으로 전부-또는-전무 변환(all-or-nothing transform) 형태를 가지면서도 정보이론적으로 완화된 조건에서 안전한 네트워크 부호화 방식임을 증명할 것이다.

In general. a speech coding is dedicated to the compression performance or the speech quality. But. the speech coding in this paper is focused on the performance of flexible transmission to the, network speed. For this. the subbanding coding is needed. which is used the wavelet packet concept in the signal analysis. The extraction of each frequency-band is difficult to general signal analysis methods, after coding each band, the reconstruction of these is also a difficult problem. But. with the wavelet packet concept(perfect reconstruction) and its fast computation algorithm. the extraction of each band and the reconstruction are more natural. Also, this paper describes a direct solution of the voice transmission on network and implement this algorithm at the TCP/IP network environment of PC.

무선 애드 혹(ad hoc) 네트워크에서 전송 효율을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법으로 네트워크 코딩(network coding)이 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11 무선 랜에 네트워크 코딩을 적용하였을 때, 수율(throughput) 성능을 예측할 수 있는 분석 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 이 모델에서는 모든 무선 노드들이 선형 토폴로지(topology)로 네트워크를 구성하고 있고, 양단에 위치한 두 개의 소스 노드들이 패킷을 발생시키고, 중간 노드들은 네트워크 코딩을 수행하면서 패킷을 전달하는 역할을 하게 된다. 제안하는 분석 모델은 궁극적으로 각 노드별수율의 비선형 방정식 형태로 귀결되며, 이 방정식의 해를 통해서 단대단(end-to-end) 수율을 계산하게 된다. 본 논문에서 제안한 분석 모델의 정확성을 검증하기 위하여, 다양한 모의 실험을 수행하였으며, 분석 모델을 통한 수율 예측치가 시뮬레이션 결과와 상당히 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다.

In-network storage is an effective technique for avoiding network congestion and reducing power consumption in continuous data collection in wireless sensor networks. In recent years, network coding based storage design has been proposed as a means to achieving ubiquitous access that permits any query to be satisfied by a few random (nearby) storage nodes. To maintain data consistency in continuous data collection applications, the readings of a sensor over time must be sent to the same set of storage nodes. In this paper, we present an efficient approach to updating data at storage nodes to maintain data consistency at the storage nodes without decoding out the old data and re-encoding with new data. We studied a transmission strategy that identifies a set of storage nodes for each source sensor that minimizes the transmission cost and achieves ubiquitous access by transmitting sparsely using the sparse matrix theory. We demonstrate that the problem of minimizing the cost of transmission with coding is NP-hard. We present an approximation algorithm based on regarding every storage node with memory size B as B tiny nodes that can store only one packet. We analyzed the approximation ratio of the proposed approximation solution, and compared the performance of the proposed coding approach with other coding schemes presented in the literature. The simulation results confirm that significant performance improvement can be achieved with the proposed transmission strategy.

A major challenge in network service providers is to provide adequate resources in service level agreements based on forecasts of future demands. In this paper, we address the problem of capacity provisioning in a network subject to demand uncertainty such that a network coded multicast is applied as the data delivery mechanism with limited budget to purchase extra capacity. We address some particular type of uncertainty sets that obtain a tractable constrained capacity provisioning problem. For this reason, we first formulate a mathematical model for the problem under uncertain demand. Then, a robust optimization model is proposed for the problem to optimize the worst-case system performance. The robustness and effectiveness of the developed model are demonstrated by numerical results. The robust solution achieves more than 10% reduction and is better than the deterministic solution in the worst case.

In contrast to traditional "store-and-forward" routing mechanisms, network coding offers an elegant solution for achieving maximum network throughput. The core idea is that intermediate network nodes linearly combine received data packets so that the destination nodes can decode original files from some authenticated packets. Although network coding has many advantages, especially in wireless sensor network and peer-to-peer network, the encoding mechanism of intermediate nodes also results in some additional security issues. For a powerful adversary who can control arbitrary number of malicious network nodes and can eavesdrop on the entire network, cryptographic signature schemes provide undeniable authentication mechanisms for network nodes. However, with the development of quantum technologies, some existing network coding signature schemes based on some traditional number-theoretic primitives vulnerable to quantum cryptanalysis. In this paper we first present an efficient network coding signature scheme in the standard model using lattice theory, which can be viewed as the most promising tool for designing post-quantum cryptographic protocols. In the security proof, we propose a new method for generating a random lattice and the corresponding trapdoor, which may be used in other cryptographic protocols. Our scheme has many advantages, such as supporting multi-source networks, low computational complexity and low communication overhead.

In transmission of image sequences over ATM networks, the packet loss problem and channel sharing efficiency are important. As a possible solution two-layer video coding methods have been proposed. These methods transmit video information over the network with different levels of protection with respect to packets loss. In this paper, a two-layer coding method using pyramid structure is proposed and several realizations of two-layer video coding methods are presented and their performances are compared.
