Abstract :
Consider a lossy communication channel for unicast with zero-delay feedback. For this communication scenario, a simple retransmission scheme is optimum with respect to delay. An alternative approach is to use random linear coding in automatic repeat-request (ARQ) mode. We extend the work of Shrader and Ephremides in [1], by deriving an expression for the delay of random linear coding over a field of infinite size. Simulation results for various field sizes are also provided.
