Focusing on an important and complicated topic in wireless network
design, Wireless Quality of Service: Techniques, Standards, and
Applications systematically addresses the quality-of-service (QoS)
issues found in many types of popular wireless networks.
In each chapter, the book presents numerous QoS challenges
encountered in real-world applications and delineates ways to
overcome these obstacles. Some of the challenges explored are
performance impairments in WLAN hotspots, video streaming
applications, and broadband wireless access. The techniques and
mechanisms covered to tackle these problems include medium access
and call admission control techniques, a parameter tuning
algorithm, the QoS-enabling features of IEEE 802.11e, a Markov
chain model, a probe-based distributed admission control mechanism,
topology-transparent scheduling protocols, and a novel multicast
congestion control mechanism.
Addressing advanced topics and future directions, the expert
contributors acknowledge the need for more research to solve
several open issues. In the meantime, they offer innovative
solutions to solve current QoS problems.
