WLAN Manager (WM): A Device for Performance Management of a WLAN
Overview This paper proposes a Split MAC architecture-based solution to enhance the Quality of Service (QoS) experienced by the wireless nodes in an IEEE 802.11b/e-based WLAN. The proposed solution achieves the objectives of providing a fair sharing of the wireless channel time among STAtions (STAs) while maximizing channel utilization in a situation where STAs are associated at different data rates with the Access Point (AP), exercising Connection Admission Control (CAC) for two-way voice calls, supporting policy-based service differentiation among the flows within one IEEE 802.11e access category, and maintaining performance levels during inter-AP roaming of STAs. The proposed solution is implemented on an extraneous device, called WM (WLAN Manager), which in CAPWAP parlance can be termed an access controller.
