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 …

This paper presents a novel mathematical model of the IEEE 802.11 Enhanced Distributed
Channel Access (EDCA) function. The main advantage of the model is that it combines …

The main service differentiation mechanism introduced by the IEEE 802.11 e standard is
described in terms of prioritized contention access. Analyzing the performance and service …

The amended version of IEEE 802.11 e defines the enhanced distributed channel access
(EDCA) for quality of service (QoS) connections. EDCA provides a priority scheme to classify …

This paper proposes a very simple reduced abstract model of the behavior of the EDCA
(Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) access mode with respect to an access category …

An analytical model is proposed to describe the priority schemes of the EDCA mechanism of
the IEEE 802.11 e standard. EDCA provides class-based differentiated QoS to IEEE 802.11 …

This work deals with the performance evaluation of the IEEE 802.11 e EDCA proposal for
service prioritization in wireless LANs. A large amount of study has been carried out in the …

IEEE 802.11 e standard has been specified to support differentiated quality of service (QoS),
one of the critical issues on the conventional IEEE 802.11 wireless local area networks …

The new standard IEEE 802.11 e is specified to support quality-of-service in wireless local
area networks. A comprehensive study of the performance of enhanced distributed channel …

We present an analytical packet/flow-level modelling approach for the performance analysis
of IEEE 802.11 e WLAN, where we explicitly take into account QoS differentiation …
