In mobile wireless sensor networks, linear network coding has been shown to improve the performance of network throughput and reduce delay. However, the linear dependence of coded packets caused by linear network coding will result in significant instability of the entire network during data transmission. Moreover, current linear network coding schemes do not distinguish between the real-time requirements of different packets. To solve the above problems, a weighted Vandermonde echelon fast coding scheme is proposed based on an analysis of various coding schemes such as random and linear network coding. Weighted Vandermonde echelon fast coding scheme can reduce the dependence problem of the network coding matrix and distinguish between different packet priorities. The accuracy of the proposed weighted Vandermonde echelon fast coding method is investigated through a theoretical analysis and then its outstanding delivery performance is verified through discrete event simulation experiments.

In Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs), the tradeoff between network throughput and energy efficiency remains a key challenge. Most current transmission schemes try to cope with the challenge from the perspective of general Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which may not take the peculiarities of WBAN channels into account. In this paper, we take advantage of the correlation of on-body channels in walking scenarios to achieve a better tradeoff between throughput and energy consumption. We first analyze the characteristics of on-body channels based on realistic channel gain datasets, which are collected by our customized wireless transceivers in walking scenarios. The analytical results confirm the rationale of our newly proposed transmission scheme A3NC, which explores the combination of the aggregative allocation (AA) mechanism in MAC layer and the Analog Network Coding (ANC) technique in PHY layer. Both theoretical analyses and simulation results show that the A3NC scheme achieves significant improvement in upload throughput and energy efficiency, compared to the conventional approaches.
