随机网络编码理论及其在无线通信网络中的应用

Random Network Coding and Its Applications in Wireless Networks

随机网络编码理论是近些年刚刚兴起的崭新网络基础理论,与以路由为基础的传统网络理论相比它有很多独有的优势,这必将推动新一代网络通信系统的产生。本文首先介绍了随机网络编码理论的基本内容,包括它的定义、独有的特点和优势,然后分析了将它应用于无线通信网络需要解决的一些关键问题,最后展望了该理论的发展前景。

Random network coding is a new fundamental network theory. It has many unique advantages by comparison with traditional routing based network theory. This will promote the birth of next - generation communication network. We present its def- inition, exclusive characteristics and preponderances, and analyze some open issues when it is applied to wireless networks. We also forecast its future development directions.
