Study on The Performance of Coding-Assisted SWARM Communications

Abstract

Swarm communications represent some of the main solutions proposed for large content distribution in the current and future data communication networks. One of the possible solutions to improve the performance of swarm communication is represented by the use of Digital Fountain and Network Coding techniques integrated in the data exchange between swarm peers. The paper proposes a comparative study of the non-coded and coding assisted swarm communications in different settings related to the amount of employed signaling, supersymbol size, supersymbol number, and number of initial seeds. The study is based on computer simulations performed in some particular network topology and the goal is to identify the settings of coding assisted swarm communications which ensure significant decrease of its content distribution time.
