Achieving Service Differentiation in 802.11e WLANs using p-Persistent CSMA Throughput/Delay Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
There is a growing need for quality of service (QoS) provisioning over 802.11 wireless local area networks. The 802.11e amendment addresses this need by allowing for traffic to be given different priority assignments. This can allow for QoS to be provided by service differentiation. In this paper we provide a simple throughput/delay analysis for p-persistent CSMA which can be used as an analysis for 802.11e. We show how this simple analysis can allow for system optimisation and also show how effective service differentiation can be achieved.

A Geometric Distribution for Backoff Time in IEEE 802.11 DCF: An Analytical Study
Today’s networks, including WLANs, transport different classes of services. A service differentiation is then essential to provide QoS. However, IEEE 802.11 for WLANs was primarily designed for best effort traffic and did not provide QoS specifications. IEEE 802.11e MAC has been then described to support QoS in WLAN. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for service differentiation which is ba...

In this study, throughput and delay performance of IEEE 802.11b and 802.11e is presented under non-saturation conditions. In order to improve the performance of IEEE 802.11b, the IEEE 802.11e has been proposed to improve the Quality of Services (QoS) for multimedia application. The standard 802.11b CSMA/CA contention mechanism does not support QoS but the standard 802.11e provides QoS by adjust...

IEEE 802.11e standard has been specified to support differentiated quality of service (QoS), one of the critical issues on the conventional IEEE 802.11 wireless local area networks (WLANs). Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) is the fundamental and mandatory contention-based channel access method of IEEE 802.11e, and delivers traffic based on differentiated Access Categories (ACs). A gen...

This paper proposes a multi-dimensional Markov model to analyse the performance of the IEEE 802.11e EDCF MAC protocol. Based on this model, we present extensive performance evaluation in terms of throughput, throughput ratios, and access delay of flows of distinct priorities under RTS/CTS mode. We also provide quantitative analysis of the impact of prioritized parameters, i.e. Arbitration Inter...
