Prioritized Degree Distribution in Wireless Sensor Networks with a Network Coded Data Collection Method

The reliability of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be greatly affected by failures of sensor nodes due to energy exhaustion or the influence of brutal external environment conditions. Such failures seriously affect the data persistence and collection efficiency. Strategies based on network codin...
