A Survey of WLAN QoS Systems Based on IEEE 802.11

Tags:
wireless lan

Overview This paper discusses the QoS problems faced in real-time applications of Wireless LAN's (WLAN) environment, the essential parameters and various optimization algorithms are classified, some ideas about QoS guarantee in WLAN based on IEEE 802.11 are specifically addressed. In global market, both equipments and applications of WLAN are bullish. While in very the beginning, IEEE 802.11 was drafted out to support data applications and did not consider much about Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees for throughput-sensitive and delay-sensitive multimedia applications.
