چکیده

In this paper we describe how the contentionbased medium access mechanism of 802.11e, EDCA, can be enhanced in order to allow stations to reserve medium access for their real-time applications with QoS requirements. We present our proposed scheme, which is called EDCA with resource reservation (EDCA/RR), and describe how it can be extended in order to be used in wireless multi-hop networks. EDCA/RR operates in a completely distributed manner and manages to provide deterministic, contentionfree medium access, making it an attractive scheme for wireless networks.

Providing QoS in Ad Hoc Networks with Distributed Resource Reservation

As the use of WLANs based on IEEE 802.11 increases, the need for QoS becomes more obvious. The new IEEE 802.11e standard aims at providing QoS, but its contention-based medium access mechanism, EDCA, provides only service differentiation, i.e. soft QoS. In order to provide hard QoS, earlier we have proposed an extension called EDCA with resource reservation (EDCA/RR), which enhances EDCA by off...

As the use of WLANs based on IEEE 802.11 increase, the need for QoS becomes more obvious. The upcoming IEEE 802.11e aims at providing QoS, but its contention-based medium access mechanism, enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA), provides only service differentiation. In order to provide QoS guarantees, we have proposed an extension called EDCA with resource reservation (EDCA/RR), which enha...

QoS in distributed wireless 802.11-based multi-hop networks

Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN)s are today common for access to Internet; well-known and used is IEEE 802.11 standardized technology. Some drawbacks of the standardized distributed medium access scheme, Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) has resulted in considerations made to extend the DCF from single-hop communications to multi-hop. Multihopping has the potential to reduce energy con...

Supporting Internet Access and Quality of Service in Distributed Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

In this era of wireless hysteria, with continuous technological advances in wireless communication and new wireless technologies becoming standardized at a fast rate, we can expect an increased interest for wireless networks, such as ad hoc and mesh networks. These networks operate in a distributed manner, independent of any centralized device. In order to realize the practical benefits of ad h...
