Reliable Data Transmission Scheme Based on Network Coding in Wireless Sensor Network
In order to achieve reliable data transmission in clustering structure based data acquisition systems of wireless sensor network, in this paper, we propose a reliable data transmission scheme based on network coding for clustering wireless sensor network. We use random linear network coding to solve reliable multicast data transmission from base station to other nodes, and then combine random linear network coding with multipath routing for transmitting acquired data to the base station, so as to improve the success rate for sending acquired data to the base station. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve reliable data transmission with lower energy, and significantly improve the transmission reliability compared to data transmission without using network coding.
