On the Energy Benefit of Compute-and-forward for Multiple Unicasts

Compute-and-forward (CF) is a technique which exploits broadcast and superposition in wireless networks. In this paper, the CF energy benefit is studied for networks with unicast sessions and modeled by connected graphs. This benefit is defined as the ratio of the minimum energy consumption by traditional routing techniques, not using broadcast...

Network Coding for Undirected Information Exchange

We consider the information exchange problem where each in a set of terminals transmits information to all other terminals in the set, over an undirected network. We show that the design of only a single network code for multicasting is sufficient to achieve an arbitrary point in the achievable rate region. We also provide an alternative proof...
