Abstract: In a wireless mesh network, the network coding algorithm used to improve network efficiency. In this paper, we have implemented the Q-learning algorithm with CSMA/CA as in distributed co-ordination function along with multi-path transfer protocol (MPTP). The functioning of CSMA/CA is based on physical carrier sensing. Q-learning algorithm, along with network coding, is implemented to achieve better throughput. Our proposed method has used to reduce the packet loss and to minimize the end to end delay of the network communication. Also, it will improve the possibility of receiver buffer blocking.
