According to the convenience and efficiency, IEEE 802.11 WLAN(Wireless LAN) has became rapidly wide-spread on the market. However, QoS support is needed for various multimedia service. In this paper, we consider both MAC method of IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.11e and Traffic Category differentiated service by QoS support method. In addition, we study currently existing back-off algorithms in view of comparative analysis. As a result we propose a new back-off algorithm called Collision Rate Based-EDCF. The proposed back-off algorithm confirms the performance by computer simulations in terms of Throughput, and QoS support.

The EDCA scheme in IEEE 802.11 MAC protocols was adopted to support QoS of each traffic. The impact of legacy DCF stations on EDCA voice service is studied using extensive simulations. The maximum number of voice sessions are obtained in cases that IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11a physical layers are used.

Wireless LAN(Local Area Network) environment to support QoS in IEEE802.11 Working Group has standardized on the IEEE 802.11e. IEEE 802.11e EDCA channel access of the high priority traffic as by raising the probability of a chance to support QoS. This is a high priority traffic than low priority traffic, channel access is not necessarily the first. Therefore, as all traffic channels, if you have the same routing path, lower priority traffic on the performance of high priority traffic, sustainable impact. As a result, EDCA, such as voice or video to guarantee QoS for multimedia applications, follow the crowd. In this paper, to solve these problems by using Multi-Interface Multi-Path Routing Algorithm is proposed. Interface for each use in IEEE 802.11e EDCA Access Category much differently by each of the Routing Path for high priority traffic and guarantee QoS.

Wireless LANs based on the IEEE 802.11 standard are widely spread for use nowadays. Traffic which are conveyed over the WLANs change rapidly from normal data such a Email and Web pages, to multimedia data of high resolution video and voice. To meet QoS (Quality of Service) required by these multimedia traffic, the IEEE 802 committee recently has developed a new standard, IEEE 802.11e. IEEe 802.11.e contains two MAC mechanisms for providing QoS: EDCA(Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) and HCCA (HCF Controlled Channel Access). Using these standardized MAC mechanisms as a building platform, various admission control mechanisms can be combined to offer QoS gurantees for multimedia traffic. This paper surveys these research efforts.

무선 인터넷 사용자와 멀티미디어 서비스의 급증으로 IEEE 802.11 WG에서는 사용자에게 QoS를 지원하기 위해 기존의 MAC 프로토콜을 향상시키고 기존의 IEEE 802.11과 호환성을 가지는 IEEE 802.11e 표준을 제정하였다. 따라서 기존의 MAC 네트워크 카드를 가진 사용자도 새로운 QoS Basic Service Set(QBSS)에 문제없이 접속할 수 있다. 하지만 IEEE 802.11e가 지원되는 무선 AP가 있는 QBSS 네트워크 내에 기존의 802.11 station은 요구하는 QoS를 지원받지 못할 뿐더러 전체적인 네트워크 성능의 저하도 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 MAC을 가지고 있는 station도 Virtual Queue Middleware 통해 QoS를 보장받고 전체적인 네트워크 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제시하고자한다.

As the current IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN standard provides the unified channel access procedure for each traffic service without considering its own traffic characteristics, it is difficult to get its differentiated service qualities at IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN system. To solve this limit, IEEE 802.11e standard that can provide differentiated service to each traffic is under preparation. In this study, we implemented IEEE 802.11e EDCA channel access scheme with NS-2 simulator, and showed its numerical results in various system environments with using average delay and throughput as performance measures.

There is a serious problem in an 802.11g VoWLAN (Voice over Wireless LAN) terminal that talk time is less than 30% compared with an 802.11b terminal. It is almost impossible to achieve talk time level of the 802.11b MAC transmission method because IEEE 802.11g uses OFDM modulation, which is a kind of multi-carrier method and OFDM transmission speed is 54 Mbps faster than normal modulation. In this paper, a new concept of a Holdover time as a power saving method during a call with 802.11g terminal is suggested for the first time. Increase in the number of engaged terminals as a result of holdover time causes to QoS problem because of the increase in the number of back-off and then contention window. In this paper, to solve the QoS problem, a new approach is suggested such that when in down lint the sequence number of 802.11 G.711 is analyzed in the MAC of the terminal and then the Hold over time depending on loss rate is changed. Also, consumption of an electric current of 802.11b/g and MAC parameter's performance due to busy traffic caused by increase in the number of terminal are analyzed and then real data using VQT and Airopeek are analyzed.

최근 무선 랜의 상용화에 따른 다양한 어플리케이션들이 제공되고 있다. 이 중 대용량 멀티미디어 트래픽을 사용한 다양한 서비스가 제공되고 있는데, 이들에 대한 QoS 보장을 위한 다양한 기법들이 세안되고 있다. 기존의 802.11에서는 CSDP 스케줄러를 이용하여 각각의 MH로 보내지는 데이터에 대한 QoS를 보장하기 위해 노력하였고, WG(Working Group) e가 만들어지면서 보다 상세하게 데이터 트래픽에 대한 QoS를 더 연구하게 되었다. 본 논문에서 제안하고자 하는 스케줄러는 IEEE 802.11에 CSDP (Channel State Dependent Packet) 스케줄러의 LSM(Link State Monitoring)의 개념과 IEEE 802.11e에서 제안하고 있는 EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access)방식과 HCCA (HCF Controlled Channel Access) 방식이 결합되어 있는 스케줄러에 실제 스케줄링이 이루어지는 PHY Queue에 가기 전 대기하는 Queue에 가상 큐를 적용하여 트레픽 특성을 고려하고, bad가 발생하는 링크로 가는 트래픽에 대해서는 임시 큐에 저장한 후에 링크가 good 상태가 되면 전송함으로써 보다 높은 QoS를 제공하며, 전체 시스템의 효율을 향상시키는 스케줄러를 제안하고자 한다.

PCF(Point Coordination Function) of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol is an access method oat generally has better performance under high offered load conditions. And it is also appropriate for sending data of time-limited applications. In this paper we consider the QoS(Quality of Service) enhancement method according to the change of nodes in the IEEE 802.11 WLAN. We assume that the un consists or QoS nodes and non-QoS nodes. The QoS nodes has a mechanism to support QoS. we can find the appropriate network parameters by many simulations. And the changes of network status are considered according to the number of nodes.
