Title
Evolution of WLANs towards VoIP traffic and higher throughputs.
Abstract
As WLANs have become more popular, limitations in the original design of WLAN have also become more evident. The MAC protocol of WLAN was designed to reduce transmission collisions in a distributed access environment. In many cases however, the user-level performance is severely limited, not only for data transfers, but voice applications as well. We present an overview of major shortcomings of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol and review proposed solutions. We propose a novel and implicit scheme to improve the voice capacity of WLANs, and present results on performance metrics, based on analytical models.
