Rate Region Analysis for Uniform Fractional Routing Networks
which may be different from the dimensions of source messages
the network is called uniform fractional routing network.The rate region of a fractional routing network is a polytope in a multidimensional Euclidean space
but effective implementable methods are still missing to calculate the region for networks with different traffic patterns.This paper studied rate region analysis methods for three traffic patterns:For multiple unicasts
a method based on reduced graph
union reduced graph
and virtual node was proposed;For a single multicast
it was based on subtree decomposition and combinatorial design;For a pattern mixed of two flows
the polygon region was drawn by determining all extreme points.Correctness of these methods was proved in theory and illustrated by examples.
