چکیده

In the past months the deployment of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) hot spots has vastly increased in many places world-wide and the IEEE 802.11 standard is playing a more and more important role in future mobile radio networks of the 4th Generation (4G). In order to fulfill the requirements of such 4G networks the WLAN technology has to provide mechanisms for the transport of Quality-of-Service (QoS) traffic. Therefore, service differentiation between the different types of multimedia traffic and best-effort traffic is inevitable. In this paper, we study the robustness of current and future QoS Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols in three different scenarios with overlapping cells.

Multi-channel Medium Access Control Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey

Extensive researches on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been performed and many techniques have been developed for the data link (MAC) layer. Most of them assume single-channel MAC protocols. In the usual dense deployment of the sensor networks, single-channel MAC protocols may be deficient because of radio collisions and limited bandwidth. Hence, using multiple channels can significantly ...

Throughput and QoS Optimization in IEEE 802.11 WLAN

In a wireless LAN (WLAN) based on IEEE 802.11, supporting multiple classes of services with QoS constraints in MAC layer is very important. In this paper, we propose a class-based analytical model to support multiple traffic classes. Through investigating the relationship between access control parameters, such as contention window (CW) sizes and inter-frame space (IFS) under QoS constraints, w...

WLAN 802.11e evaluation performance using OPNET

The low cost and easy deployment of Wireless LAN 802.11 standard means it becomes more and more popular, but it has a vital drawback with regard to Quality of Service (QoS). QoS defines the ability of network to introduce consistent services for data transmission, and is evaluated in terms of specific parameters such as jitter, delay, and packet loss. These parameters describe data traffic qual...
