| contents | Adaptive network coding schemes provide a promising approach to bridging the gap between high data rates and low delay in real-time streaming applications. However, their effectiveness often relies on accurate channel prediction, which is typically based on delayed feedback and is especially challenging when the underlying channel model is unknown. To address this, we introduce a novel integration of network coding with a channel-agnostic, Deep learning-based Noise Prediction algorithm (DeepNP). Unlike traditional estimators, DeepNP predicts statistical noise rates rather than instantaneous noise realizations, significantly simplifying the prediction task while enhancing coding performance. DeepNP is designed to operate with both binary (e.g., acknowledgments) and continuous-valued (e.g., Signal-to-Noise Ratio, SNR) feedback. We incorporate DeepNP into the Adaptive and Causal Random Linear Network Coding (AC-RLNC) framework to jointly optimize throughput and in-order delivery delay. Two variants are proposed: (i) Erasure-Rate DeepNP (ER-DeepNP), which serves as a transport-layer noise predictor and achieves in a numerical study up to a 2x reduction in mean and maximum delay with less than 0.1 loss in throughput compared to statistic-based estimators, under Round-Trip Time (RTT) up to 40 time slots and erasure rates up to 60%; and (ii) Cross-Layer DeepNP (CL-DeepNP), which dynamically adjusts the SNR threshold to maintain high physical layer code rates while achieving low transport-layer erasure rates. This yields, in the presented numerical study, a 25% throughput gain over fixed-threshold approaches. Our results demonstrate that DeepNP enables robust, model-free noise prediction, making adaptive network coding more viable in practical, feedback-limited communication scenarios. |
