Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for an adaptive and causal random linear network coding (AC-RLNC) with forward error correction (FEC) for a communication channel with delayed feedback. An example methodology implementing the techniques includes transmitting one or more coded packets in a communication channel, determining a channel behavior of the channel, and adaptively adjusting a transmission of a subsequent coded packet in the first channel based on the determined channel behavior. The communication channel may be a point-to-point communication channel between a sender and a receiver. The channel behavior may be determined based on feedback acknowledgements provided by the receiver. The subsequent coded packet may be a random linear combination of one or more information packets.
