Abstract
Based on the impressive features that network coding and compressed sensing paradigms have separately brought, the idea of bringing them together in practice will result in major improvements and influence in the upcoming 5G networks. In this context, this paper aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these key techniques in a cluster-based wireless sensor network, in the presence of temporal and spatial correlations. Our goal is to achieve better compression gains by scaling down the total payload carried by applying temporal compression as well as reducing the total number of transmissions in the network using real field network coding. In order to further reduce the number of transmissions, the cluster-heads perform a low complexity spatial pre-coding consisting of sending the packets with a certain probability. Furthermore, we compare our approach with benchmark schemes. As expected,…
