Abstract
In this paper, we investigate streaming codes over a three-node relay network. Source node transmits a sequence of message packets to the destination via a relay. Source-to-relay and relay-to-destination links are unreliable and introduce at most N1 and N2 packet erasures, respectively. Destination needs to recover each message packet with a strict decoding delay constraint of T time slots. We propose streaming codes under this setting for all feasible parameters N1, N_2, T. Relay naturally observes erasure patterns occurring in the source-to-relay link. In our code construction, we employ a channel-state-dependent relaying strategy, which rely on these observations. In a recent work, Fong et al. provide streaming codes featuring channel-state-independent relaying strategies, for all feasible parameters N1, N_2, T. Our schemes offer a strict rate improvement over the schemes proposed by Fong et al., whenever N_1< N_2. © 2021 IEEE.
