IEEE 802.11e - fair resource sharing between overlapping basic service sets
نویسندگان
چکیده
The upcoming IEEE 802.11e is an extension of the 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) standard. We use this new standard with its priority provisioning mechanism to address fairness issues that occur when geographically co-located WLANs share the radio channel in the so-called Overlapping Basic Service Set environment. By allowing a new mechanism that is part of the 802.11e, called EDCF-TXOP bursting, we show that WLANs will gain from intelligent radio resource control in a fair manner. A WLAN that applies EDCF-TXOP bursting can significantly improve its performance compared to a WLAN that does not utilize EDCF-TXOP bursting.

A Differentiated Service Model for Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) of IEEE 802.11e WLANs
In this paper, we propose a new differentiated service model, referred to as Differentiated Service-EDCA (DS-EDCA), for the Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) of IEEE 802.11e wireless local area networks (WLANs). With DS-EDCA, both strict priority and weighted fair service can be provided. The strict priority service is provided for high priority traffic through carefully setting the ED...

Most of the deployed IEEE 802.11e Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) use infrastructure Basic Service Set (BSS) in which an Access Point (AP) serves as a gateway between wired and wireless domains. We present the unfairness problem between the uplink and the downlink flows of any Access Category (AC) in the 802.11e Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) when the default settings of the ED...
