Achievable QoS in an interface/resource-limited shared wireless channel

چکیده
In this work, the region of achievable quality-ofservice (QoS) is precisely described for a system of real-time heterogeneous variable bit rate (VBR) sources competing for slots (packet transmission times) of a time division multiple access (TDMA) frame. The QoS for each application is defined in terms of a maximum tolerable packet-dropping probability. Packets may be dropped due to delay violations and channel induced errors. The region of achievable QoS is precisely described for an interference/resource limited network by considering the underlying TDMA-multiple access control (TDMA-MAC) structure and the physical channel. A simple QoS-sensitive errorcontrol protocol that combats the effects of the wireless channel while satisfying the real-time requirements is proposed and its impact on the region of achievable QoS is evaluated. The results presented here clearly illustrate the negative impact of a poor channel and the positive impact of the employed error-control protocol on the achievable QoS. The region of achievable QoS vectors is central to the call admission problem, and in this work, it is used to identify a class of scheduling policies capable of delivering any achievable performance.

Achievable Qos in an Interference/resource-limited Shared Wireless Channel
In this work, the region of achievable QoS-which is central to the development of a call admission control mechanism-is precisely described for a system of heterogeneous VBR sources with real-time service constraints. The QoS for each application is deened in terms of a packet dropping probability. Packets may be dropped due to delay violations and channel induced errors. The shared transmissio...
متن کاملAchievable QoS and Scheduling Policies for Integrated Services Wireless Networks
Networks are expected to support applications with diverse traac characteristics and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, such as voice, data, video and multi-media. In this environment it is important to determine whether a given QoS vector is achievable (for call admission control), and if it is, design eecient resource allocation policies that deliver it. In this paper a system of T resour...
متن کاملOptimal Resource Allocation Policies for a Multiaccess Fading Channel with a Quality of Service Constraint
Future wireless networks will support traffic with diverse quality of service (QoS) requirements. Wireless resources, e.g., the bandwidth and the power at the mobiles, being scarce, it is important to use them judiciously and thus the traditional problem of sharing the resources efficiently among the contending users is important. At the system level, the problem that we address is similar to t...
متن کاملScheduling Vbr Traac for Achievable Qos in a Shared Un-buuered Environment
In this paper a system of T resources (wireless channels) shared by a number of un-buuered applications is considered. Packets which are not allocated a channel within the current service cycle are dropped. The Quality of Service (QoS) vector is equivalently described in terms of (diverse) packet dropping probabilities (pi), or (diverse) packet dropping rates (di). From a precisely deened regio...
متن کاملEnabling End-to-End QoS over Hybrid Wired-Wireless Networks
Providing end-to-end parameterized QoS is desirable for many network applications and has received a lot of attention in recent years. However, it remains a challenge, especially over hybrid networks involving both wired networks and wireless access segments (such as IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs)). The difficulty in achieving such QoS arises mainly because wireless segments o...
