Performance Analysis Of Network Coding Using OPNET

Abstract

Network coding is a useful technique for improvingnetwork throughput and reducing communication delays. This paperprovides a detailed study of network coding and its characteristics and proposes a better model based on the performance results. Analysis is performed using the OPNET simulator interfaced with the MATLAB. Furthermore, we also implement linear-information-flow algorithm in order to analyzethe performance of the proposed network model where the performance criterion is based on the maximum data flow rate.
