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. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in computer science. 606 $aWireless communication systems$xSecurity measures 615 0$aWireless communication systems$xSecurity measures. 676 $a004.6 700 $aWang$b Ping$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0917945 702 $aZhuang$b Weihua 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437588703321 996 $aDistributed Medium Access Control in Wireless Networks$92524287 997 $aUNINA
