Summary: | The upcoming IEEE 802.11e standard supports the applications with QoS requirements by using differentiated medium access mechanism for different traffic categories. In order to protect the high priority data flows and improve network performance in a heavy-loaded IEEE 802.11e network, a new measurement-based distributed call admission control method is introduced in this paper. The proposed method is based on the measurement of the existing traffic load over IEEE 802.11e network. Depending on the amount of the existing traffic load, the admission controller decides whether or not to allow a data unit to have the right to access the wireless medium. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism works well. |
