Abstract

We investigate the power consumption and bandwidth usage for information exchange between two terminal nodes in a linear wireless ad hoc network. Specifically, we propose a joint network coding and adaptive power control (NCPC) scheme which regulates the transmission power to reduce the overall energy usage and to increase the bandwidth efficiency. Analysis and numerical results show that our proposed technique reduces power consumption while increasing the network throughput as compared with the existing transmission techniques.
