Practical random network coding based schemes for multicast include a header in each
packet that records the transformation between the sources and the terminal. The header
introduces an overhead that can be significant in certain scenarios. In previous work, parity
check matrices of error control codes along with error decoding were used to reduce this
overhead. In this work we propose novel packet formats that allow us to use erasure

Practical random network coding based schemes for multicast include a header in each packet that records the transformation between the sources and the terminal. The header introduces an overhead that can be significant in certain scenarios. In previous work, parity check matrices of error control codes along with error decoding were used to reduce this overhead. In this work we propose novel packet formats that allow us to use erasure decoding and list decoding. Both schemes have a smaller overhead compared to the error decoding based scheme, when the number of sources combined in a packet is not too small.
