For WLANs, an efficient MAC scheme and a call admission control algorithm are presented to provide guaranteed QoS for voice traffic and, at the same time, increase the voice capacity significantly compared with the current WLAN standard. In addition, a novel token-based scheduling scheme is proposed to provide great flexibility and facility to the network service provider for service class management. Also proposed is a novel busy-tone based distributed MAC scheme for wireless ad hoc networks and a collision-free MAC scheme for wireless mesh networks, respectively, taking the different network characteristics into consideration. The proposed schemes enhance the QoS provisioning capability to real-time traffic and, at the same time, significantly improve the system throughput and fairness performance for data traffic, as compared with the most popular IEEE 802.11 MAC scheme.SpringerBriefs in computer science.Wireless communication systemsSecurity measuresWireless communication systemsSecurity measures.004.6Wang Pingauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut917945Zhuang WeihuaMiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910437588703321Distributed Medium Access Control in Wireless Networks2524287UNINA
