Performance Measurement of Evolutionary Routing Protocol in Network Coding

Wireless networks are suffer from throughput limitation, one of the effective method to solve limitation of wireless throughput are network coding which is combine several packets from difference input to a single packet size length and forwards the packet in a single transmission time slot. Furthermore, network coding also reduce energy usage in wireless devices. However, while network coding improve throughput of network it also introduce side effect such as increasing on buffer capacity and delay. In this paper, an evolutionary approach is proposed to optimize the advantages and disadvantages of network coding in a network. The simulation result shows that evolutionary algorithm is able to search multipath with minimal usage of coding nodes to balance the overhead and throughputs of network.
