Abstract

Network Coding (NC) is a hot topic nowadays. Even though it has proven its applicability to wireless networks, there are still some questions whether network coding is feasible for small devices. To answer this question an implementation of the Partial Network Coding (PNC) buffer scheme is done on a wireless sensor and the results are described within this paper. Originally PNC was presented in [4] and this paper validates the findings of the original work by implementing it on the OpenSensor Board (OSB) [3]. The OSB is developed at Aalborg University in collaboration with Technical University of Berlin. On this simple sensor board PNC is implemented and tested.
