In this paper, we develop an analytical model for IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol with arbitrary buffer size in unsaturated conditions. The model comprises of a generalized Markov chain model and an M/G/1/K queuing model. We give the thorough and accurate queuing analysis of IEEE 802.11 MAC layer. It's shown that for practical 802.11 WLAN (i.e., buffer size larger than one and number of stations comparatively...
Most of QoS-capable IEEE 802.11 MAC protocols are unable to deliver sustained quality of service while maintaining high network utilization, particularly under congested network conditions. The problem often resides in the fact that flows belonging to the same service class are assigned the same MAC parameters regardless theirs respective bitrate, which leads to throughput fairness rather than perceived...
In this paper, we propose to add a new queue in IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol for real-time multimedia traffic in wireless LAN. The queue contributes to improving multimedia service quality by reducing end to end delay, a QoS parameter. To control two queues, we use a scheduler based on the PAD algorithm which selects a packet from one of two queues appropriately for forwarding. Moreover, we adapt the...
