Abstract

Under random linear coding (RLC) scheme, we present a simple expression of the probability distribution p(D=K) for decoding delay D incurred by the lossy channel, where K is a positive integer. In contrast with the previous contribution, our focus is firstly on deriving the cumulative distribution function of the discrete random variable D over a perfect channel. One benefit of such dispose is that, from the overall viewpoint, computing the cumulative distribution function of delay D can be related with calculating the cardinalities of sets of some special matrices, so that the former can be obtained from the latter. Moreover, our expression of the probability distribution is an explicit form, and is valid for any number of packets M, freewill field size q and arbitrary channel loss rate ε.
