Abstract:
Cooperative communication and network coding are two important techniques to improve the performance of telecommunications networks. Chieochan and Hossain proposed an interesting algorithm using these techniques, called BE-ONC (Buffer Equalized Opportunistic Network Coding), and analyzed its performance via simulation. In this paper, we proposed a simplified analytical queuing model to investigate the performance of wireless networks with cooperative communication and network coding. The proposed model was implemented and used to evaluate the performance of the BE-ONC algorithm. We also compared the performance of a system with cooperative communication and network coding to the performance of a system without cooperation.
