Abstract :
Network Coding is a method that effectively combines several packets from different sources and broadcasts the combined packet to several destinations in single transmission time slot. Each destination is capable to extract the intended information by decoding from a common packet. In short, network coding is a method that improves the throughput for wireless networks and wired networks. However, while it increases the throughput of networks, it also causes side effects such as complexity of packets management and increased delay for coding opportunity. In this paper, genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize the resources for network coding. Genetic algorithm will search for suitable routes to the destination according to the desired throughput with a desired multicast rate. The simulation results show that the average end to end delay of network after minimizing coding nodes is less than normal network coding.
