Abstract

Network coding is implemented in wireless networks to improve the network capacity in mobility scenario. We first formulate the network coding in vehicular network mathematically, and then prove that it is an NP-hard problem. For improving vehicular network capacity, we propose an optimal scheduling scheme focusing on the maximization of the coding opportunities. Simulations show the efficiency of the proposed scheme compared to the greedy algorithm, and the fairness.
