The packet erasure channel is a communication channel model where sequential packets are either received or lost (at a known location). This channel model is closely related to the binary erasure channel .
In coding theory and information theory, a binary erasure channel (BEC) is a communications channel model. A transmitter sends a bit (a zero or a one), and the receiver either receives the bit correctly, or with some probability P e {\displaystyle P_{e}} receives a message that the bit was not received ("erased") .
Erasure Coding; While technically RAID can be seen as a kind of erasure code, [5] "RAID" is generally applied to an array attached to a single host computer (which is a single point of failure), while "erasure coding" generally implies multiple hosts, [3] sometimes called a Redundant Array of Inexpensive Servers (RAIS). The erasure code allows ...
If the channel characteristics cannot be determined, or are highly variable, an error-detection scheme may be combined with a system for retransmissions of erroneous data. This is known as automatic repeat request (ARQ), and is most notably used in the Internet.
The traditional scheme for transferring data across an erasure channel depends on continuous two-way communication. The sender encodes and sends a packet of information. The receiver attempts to decode the received packet. If it can be decoded, the receiver sends an acknowledgment back to the transmitter.
Linear Network Coding, a type of erasure correcting code across networks instead of point-to-point links; Long code; Low-density parity-check code, also known as Gallager code, as the archetype for sparse graph codes; LT code, which is a near-optimal rateless erasure correcting code (Fountain code) m of n codes
A broadcast channel is a channel that provides a broadcasting service, i.e. that sends data addressed to all users in the network. Cellular network examples are the paging service as well as the Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service. A multicast channel is a channel where data is addressed to a group of subscribing users. LTE examples are the ...
In the CP, DCF is used. In the CFP, the AP sends Contention-Free-Poll (CF-Poll) packets to each station, one at a time, to give them the right to send a packet. The AP is the coordinator. Although this allows for a better management of QoS, PCF does not define classes of traffic as is common with other QoS systems (e.g. 802.1p and DiffServ).
