Abstract
Link and node failures are two common fundamental problems that affect operational networks. Hence, protection of communication networks against such failures is essential for maintaining network reliability and performance. Network protection codes (NPC) are proposed to protect operational networks against link and node failures. Furthermore, encoding and decoding operations of such codes are well developed over binary and finite fields. Finding network topologies, practical scenarios, and limits on graphs applicable for NPC are of interest. In this paper, we establish limits on network protection design. We investigate several network graphs where NPC can be deployed using network coding. Furthermore, we construct graphs with minimum number of edges suitable for network protection codes deployment.
