QoS Provisioning in Wireless Mesh Networks

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 multimedia 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, contention-free medium access, making it an attractive scheme for wireless networks.

متن کاملImpact of Misbehaviour on QoS in Wireless Mesh Networks
This paper analyzes the impact of misbehaviour on QoS provisioning in wireless mesh networks. Misbehaviour occurs when a network participant decides not to cooperate. Since cooperation is fundamental for distributed environments such as mesh networks, misbehaviour can be a serious threat to them. In this work, the authors focus on the IEEE 802.11 EDCA medium access function which provides QoS i...
