Abstract

In this paper, a combined error control coding and network coding (NC) scheme is proposed for performance improvement of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in terms of throughput and Bit error rate (BER). A suggested network model is conserved in simulations, which integrates the characteristics of; mesh, stare, and tree network models with eleven nodes. Reed-Solomon (RS) code is considered as a Forward Error Control (FEC) coding scheme in simulations. The simulation results shows that BER may slightly increases using NC, while at high Signal to Noise power Ratios (SNRs), throughput performance is improved by about 64%. This improvement is obtained even when the transmission experience a frequency selective fading environments.
