Fairness and Quality of Service Issues and Analysis of IEEE 802.11e Wireless LAN
نویسندگان
چکیده
The IEEE 802.11e which is an enhanced version of the 802.11 WLAN standards incorporates the Quality of Service (QoS) which makes it a better choice for multimedia and real time applications. In this paper we study various aspects concerned with 802.11e standard. Further, the analysis results for this standard are compared with the legacy 802.11 standard. Simulation results show that IEEE 802.11e out performs legacy IEEE 802.11 in terms of quality of service due to its flow differentiated channel allocation and better queue management architecture. We also propose a method to improve the unfair allocation of bandwidth for downlink and uplink channels by varying the medium access priority level. Keywords—Wireless; IEEE 802.11e; EDCA; Throughput; QoS; MAC.

متن کاملFair and Effective Transmissions in IEEE 802.11e WLAN
The goal of the Enhanced DCF (EDCF) is to provide a distributed access approach that can support service differentiation in IEEE 802.11e Wireless LAN. In this paper we propose a control mechanism to support fair and effective transmissions in IEEE 802.11e Wireless LAN. Since the proposed mechanism transmits packets using the link states and transmitted contents, higher transmission efficiency c...
متن کاملMobility and QoS of 802.11 and 802.11e wireless LAN standards
Quality of service is a key problem in wireless environments where bandwidth is scarce and channel conditions are time varying and sometimes implies highly packet losses. IEEE 802.11b/g/a wireless LAN are the most widely used WLAN standards today, and the IEEE 802.11e quality of service enhancement standard exists and introduces quality of service support for multimedia applications. This paper...

IEEE 802.11e is the enhanced version of the IEEE 802.11 MAC dedicated to provide Quality of Service of wireless network. It supports QoS by the service differentiation and prioritization mechanism. Data traffic receives different priority based on QoS requirements. Fundamentally, applications are divided into four Access Categories (AC). Each AC has its own buffer queue and behaves as an indepe...
