本文综述了网络编码的研究现状，重点介绍了网络编码在计算机网络中的应用。网络编码通过允许网络中的中间节点在转发之前将多个接收到的分组编码成单个编码分组来概括传统的存储转发路由技术。网络编码自2000年提出以来，在计算机网络领域得到了广泛的研究。在这篇综述中，我们首先概述了线性网络编码，并对网络编码的研究进行了分类，即网络编码的设计问题和网络编码的应用。此外，后者又细分为吞吐量/容量增强、健壮性增强、网络层析和安全性。在此基础上，详细讨论了网络编码的基本特征和网络编码的各种应用。
This survey summarizes the state-of-the-art research on network coding, mainly focusing on its applications to computer networking. Network coding generalizes traditional store-and-forward routing techniques by allowing intermediate nodes in networks to encode several received packets into a single coded packet before forwarding. Network coding was proposed in 2000, and since then, it has been studied extensively in the field of computer networking. In this survey, we first summarize linear network coding and provide a taxonomy of network coding research, i.e., the network coding design problem and network coding applications. Moreover, the latter is subdivided into throughput/capacity enhancement, robustness enhancement, network tomography, and security. We then discuss the fundamental characteristics of network coding and diverse applications of network coding in details, following the above taxonomy.
