TCP fairness issues in IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs
In this paper, we study several TCP fairness issues in wireless local networks, both experimentally and via simulation. We illustrate the unfairness problems caused by the 802.11 MAC protocol, as well as by cross-layer interactions. Two possible solutions, namely SPM-AF queue management and LAS queue management, are proposed in the paper. These two queue management approaches are designed to al...
متن کاملFairness Enhancement Scheme for Multimedia Applications in IEEE 802.11e Wireless LANs
Multimedia traffic should be transmitted to a receiver within the delay bound. The traffic is discarded when breaking its delay bound. Then, QoS (Quality of Service) of the traffic and network performance are lowered. The IEEE 802.11e standard defines a TXOP (Transmission Opportunity) parameter. The TXOP is the time interval in which a station can continuously transmit multiple data packets. Al...
متن کاملModelling issues of Wireless LANs
The paper provides an overview of the application scenarios and modelling issues of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) in hospital and clinical ward environments and presents the concept of MedLAN system, dedicated to these environments. Furthermore, it discusses the potential problems when implementing such systems.
متن کاملMAC protocol enhancements for QoS guarantee and fairness over the IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs
In future wireless networks, different traffic classes will exhibit a large variety of characteristics and QoS requirements, such as transmission rate, maximum tolerable bit error rate and timeout specifications. However, currently there is no standard way of guaranteeing QoS in wireless access networks like Wireless LAN based on IEEE 802.11. In this paper, we propose medium access control prot...
متن کاملNet throughput with IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs
The throughput for IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs has been evaluated with respect to various kinds of overhead. The impact of several sources of overhead has been modeled. Sources include gap time, preamble, PHY (physical layer), MAC (medium access layer) and TCPRP header fields, ACK (acknowledgement) and request frames. After measurement of the net throughput and detailed monitoring of actual excha...
