Adaptive TXOP Allocation Based on DiffServ for QoS Enhancement in IEEE 802.11e WLAN
نویسنده
چکیده
IEEE 802.11e WLAN has provided a new access mechanism called the hybrid coordination function (HCF) for quality-of service (QoS) support[1]. Here, we provide HCF scheduler to allocate transmission opportunities (TXOPs) for the stations. TXOP is the time under which a station can send its burst of data packets to other stations. An station can be either in the good or bad channel state and it can be either in constant bit rate or variable bit rate. In the HCF scheduler, channel interference, busty traffic streaming and packet loss causes insufficiency in the strict periodic TXOP allocation scheme. In this, we propose a mechanism of adaptive TXOP allocation. This method works in accordance with channel and traffic conditions, adaptively to compute. The computation is carried by using Differentiated Service (DiffServ) and prediction, providing more access to the time-bounded multimedia applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP), videoconferencing etc...

متن کاملFairness Enhancement Scheme for Multimedia Applications in IEEE 802.11e Wireless LANs
Multimedia traffic should be transmitted to a receiver within the delay bound. The traffic is discarded when breaking its delay bound. Then, QoS (Quality of Service) of the traffic and network performance are lowered. The IEEE 802.11e standard defines a TXOP (Transmission Opportunity) parameter. The TXOP is the time interval in which a station can continuously transmit multiple data packets. Al...

More subtle and explicit QoS control mechanisms are required at the radio access level, even though the simple and scalable Differentiated Services (DiffServ) QoS control model is acceptable for the core of the network. At the radio access level, available resources are severely limited and the degree of traffic aggregation is not significant, thus rendering the DiffServ principles less effecti...
متن کاملA survey of QoS enhancements for IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN
Quality-of-service (QoS) is a key problem of today’s IP networks. Many frameworks (IntServ, DiffServ, MPLS etc.) have been proposed to provide service differentiation in the Internet. At the same time, the Internet is becoming more and more heterogeneous due to the recent explosion of wireless networks. In wireless environments, bandwidth is scarce and channel conditions are time-varying and so...
