Abstract :
The use of cooperative diversity techniques and network coding concepts are promising solutions to improve the communication reliability in industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In this paper, we propose the NetCoDer scheme to address this problem, whose design is based in these concepts. The effectiveness of the NetCoDer scheme is evaluated through both an experimental setup with real WSN nodes and a simulation assessment, comparing its performance against state-of-the-art TDMA-based retransmission techniques.
