Ensuring QoS guarantees for real-time multimedia traffic in WLANs has recently attracted a
lot of attention from standardization bodies and researchers. In order to increase the …

Audio-video streaming in Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) wireless local area networks (WLANs) has
recently attracted a lot of attention. In order to increase the granularity of traffic prioritization …

The IEEE 802.11 e is a new standard to support QoS in Wireless LAN (WLAN). A concept
called transmission opportunity (TXOP) has been proposed in 802.11 e to confine the …

The original version of the IEEE 802.11 standard is not able to provide the required Quality
of Service (QoS) for real-time applications. The IEEE 802.11 e amendment was developed …

In recent years, the rapid development of wireless communication allows us to enjoy more
multimedia services via wireless network. However, due to lack of QoS support and …

In this paper the first saturation throughput model of an IEEE 802.11 network is presented,
which includes the intra-access category prioritization introduced in the recently approved …

IEEE 802.11 e protocol enables QoS differentiation between different traffic types, but
requires MAC layer support and assigns traffic with static priority. This paper proposes an …

The Scalable Video Coding (SVC) compression technique is extension of H. 264/AVC which
is developed by Joint Video Team of the ITU-T VCEG and the ISO/IEC MPEG. SVC enables …

Multiple prioritised access category (AC) queues and virtual collision handling among them
are the main mechanism of the IEEE 802.11 e EDCA for multimedia service differentiation …

The emerging H. 264/AVC extension, SVC encoding standard facilitates the truncation of
bitstreams at certain points to fit in with wireless network variations. In this paper, we …
