Title
Multi-channel network coding in tree-based wireless sensor networks
Abstract
It has been recognized that using network coding improves the reliability and throughput of lossy wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Likewise, it is known that using multi-channel networking protocols can dramatically reduce end-to-end latency and improve throughput. However, to date there has been virtually no research as to how to combine these two techniques in a WSN. This paper presents MuCode, a novel tree-based multi-channel WSN protocol that uses network coding. The MuCode protocol uses a set of graph construction algorithms that support synchronized channel switching to take advantage of wireless eavesdropping for multi-path network coded packet delivery. The performance in MuCode has been evaluated against Sensecode, a standard tree-based WSN network coding protocol, as well as several other schemes. The results demonstrate that MuCode delivers superior performance for combined measures of throughput and latency.
