Gastpar and Vetterli named the adhoc networks with one randomly selected source-destination pair as relay networks and they suggested using arbitrary network coding in order to increase the overall efficiency Here, the relay network is investigated with two relays and no interference and a new achievable rate is obtained using a new network coding (decodeand-broadcast). The obtained achievable rate (i) gives the lower bound for the general relay channel, obtained by Cover and El Gamal, but with slight difference due to no interference assumption at the receiver (ii) includes the one relay rates of a two-level relay channel studied by Gupta and Kumar using point to point coding, (iii)... 

In this paper, we consider the network coding in networks with broadcast channels (called hypernetworks) as the first step for applying network coding to wireless networks. We first prove a Max-Flow Min-Cut theorem for such networks. While we propose an algorithm to achieve this bound, we will introduce new definitions and provide sufficient tools to extend many of the theorems stated for flows in wireline networks to the case of hypernetworks. As an example, we will extend the Max-Flow Min-Cut condition for feasibility of the point-to-point connection in wireline networks to the case of hypernetworks. Then, we will extend the algebraic approach of Koetter and Medard in [3] to the...

In this study, we have used a single link system with a pair of muscles that are excited with alpha and gamma signals to achieve both point to point and oscillatory movements with variable amplitude and frequency. The system is highly nonlinear in all its physical and physiological attributes. The major physiological characteristics of this system are simultaneous activation of a pair of nonlinear musclelike- actuators for control purposes, existence of nonlinear spindle-like sensors and Golgi tendon organlike sensor, actions of gravity and external loading. Transmission delays are included in the afferent and efferent neural paths to account for a more accurate representation of the reflex...
