Self similar behavior of the aggregate traffic is a well known issue in the networking area. In this paper, we first study the self similarity of the empirically aggregated VoIP traffic in a heterogeneous wireless network testbed environment and then model it using Fractional Gaussian Noise (fGn). The heterogeneity of the environment is provided by exploiting different wireless technologies in backbone...
We analyze the MAC access delay of the IEEE 802.11e EDCA mechanism under saturation. We develop a detailed analytical model to evaluate the influence of all EDCA differentiation parameters, namely AIFS, CWmin, CWmax and TXOP limit, as well as the backoff multiplier beta. Explicit expressions for the mean, standard deviation and generating function of the access delay distribution are derived. By applying...
Data transmission in ad hoc networks involves interactions between medium access control (MAC)-layer protocols and data forwarding along network-layer paths. These interactions have been shown to have a significant impact on the performance of a system. This impact on multipath data transmission over multihop IEEE 802.11 MAC-based ad hoc networks is assessed; analysis is from a cross-layer perspective...
This paper proposes a fast forward medium access control protocol (FFMAC) for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in multihop IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh networks with multiple channels. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first one which considers the multihop and multichannel issues simultaneously. It provides higher priority for real-time applications, while remaining the distributed...
