We address the modeling and design of linear network coding (LNC) for reliable communication against multiple failures in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To fulfill the objective, we design a deterministic LNC scheme RDLC based on the average number of path failures simultaneously happening in the network other than the maximum number of path failures. The scheme can significantly improve the network throughput comparing with the traditional approaches. In our study, we also investigate the potential of random linear code RRLC for providing reliable communication in WSNs and prove the low bound of the probability that the RRLC can provide the reliable communication. Finally, extensive simulation experiments have been conducted, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed LNC schemes.

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.

A new routing rule detection and identity authentication mechanism based on the path sequence is proposed to cope with the vulnerability problem of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) against various attacks, especially in unattended environments. Then, the great permutation encryption algorithm (G-PEC) for WSN is proposed. Finally, a signature scheme against pollution attack based on linear network coding is improved. The results show that the proposed path sequence-based authentication method with the Contiki simulation platform can significantly reduce the computing overhead of sensor nodes and decrease the energy consumption and delay of nodes to a greater extent than the traditional authentication method. The G-PEC can effectively resist eavesdropping attack, and the new signature scheme does not need additional secure channels. The proposed mechanism also provides source message authentication.
