FYI: Random Linear Network Coding boost speeds with an elegant mathematical approach...

As touted @ Code On vows to dramatically speed up Wi-Fi, cell, satellite transmissions — with math — Tech News and Analysis




Quote:
















At its most basic level RLNC relies on an algebraic equation to improve data speeds by reducing dropped packets. Those misplaced data bundles lead to congestion across a wireless network as devices try to recover the missing pieces. What the equation does instead is describe the packets, and somehow if a packet gets lost in transmission, the receiving device can solve for the missing piece without getting bogged down.



.....

Since the RLNC encoding sender doesn’t need to listen for acknowledgements of successful transmission and perhaps retransmit, the sender can continuously transmit at near-wire speed optimized for latency and network throughput. More importantly, RLNC encoding can ride on top of the TCP-IP protocol, so implementation does not require the replacement of communications equipment. But it does require software incorporating RLNC-licensed technology to execute on both ends.....
