Abstract
Network coding (NC) can prove to be particularly useful in multimedia streaming applications, where it could help to increase the network throughput and data persistence in Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET). Sliding-window Network Coding is a variation of NC that is an addition to multimedia streaming and improves the data delay on MANETs. In this paper, we propose a Sliding Window Network Coding for free Viewpoint Multimedia streaming in MANETs (SWNC-VM). SWNC-VM preserves the degree distribution of the encoded packets through the recombination at the nodes. SWNC-VM enables to control the decoding complexity of each sliding-window independently from the packets received and recover the original data. The performance of the SWNC-VM is studied using NS2 and evaluated in terms of the encoding overhead, decoding delay, packet loss probability and throughput when a packet is transmitted. The simulations result shows that the SWNC-VM with our proposition can significantly improve the network throughput and encoding efficiency.
