This protocol makes full use of channel broadcast characteristics and cooperative communication between nodes. It combines the advantages of opportunistic routing and network coding, and applies the classical butterfly structure of network coding into the WSN long-chain topology of transmission line. In the case where the specific receiving state of the packet is not determined, the protocol takes the active network protection mechanism and selects the linear coding packet to transmit as the redundant packet until the node decodes the source packet. Performance analysis and simulation results show that the proposed protocol improves the reliability of data transmission and system throughput, reduces the network transmission delay. And the improved the network performance are obtained. %U http://cea.ceaj.org/EN/10.3778/j.issn.1002-8331.1701-0110
