Information interflow network (I2N) using LDPC codes

Abstract

Recently, multihop wireless networks have gained much attraction. Since the available bandwidth and battery are strictly limited, multihop wireless networks should communicate efficiently. If the error correcting code is used, by using the longer codeword, the decoding error probability can be improved. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the information interflow network (I2N), which transmits several data packets as one longer data packet and show that the proposed network with low density parity check (LDPC) codes can improve the throughput performance compared with the conventional network.
