Focusing on uplink transmission, a low-latency medium access control scheme is proposed
and investigated for central coordinated wireless local area networks (WLANs). By …

A novel medium access control scheme is proposed and investigated for central coordinated
wireless local area networks to support future low-latency applications. The scheme divides …

In wireless local area networks (WLANs), collision-free channel access is desirable for real-
time services that require guaranteed bandwidth and bounded delay. In WLANs with a …

This paper presents a new dynamically adaptable polling scheme for efficient support of
voice communications over different IEEE802. 11 networks. The proposed polling scheme is …

Most of the existing medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless local area networks
(WLANs) provide prioritized access by adjusting the contention window sizes or inter-frame …

A learning automata-based polling (LEAP) protocol for infrastructure wireless LANs
(WLANs), which is capable of operating efficiently under bursty traffic conditions, is …

The needs of multimedia applications inspirits the IEEE 802.11 e MAC protocol as an
emerging supplement to WLANs for supporting QoS transmissions. In recent years, the …

In this paper, the polling mechanism of IEEE 802.11 n standard is examined with the
objective of reducing the delay induced by polling a large number of stations in crowded …

A QoS supportive adaptive polling (QAP) protocol for wireless LANs is introduced. QAP
operates under an infrastructure wireless LAN, where an access point (AP) polls the …

In the past few years, IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs (WLANs) has rapidly gained large
popularity for broadband wireless access. With the growing of various applications, users …
