In order to support quality-of-service (QoS) for real-time data communications such as voice, video and interactive services, multiaccess networks must provide an effective priorit...
In this paper the behavior of the upcoming MAC protocol for wireless LANs IEEE 802.11e is investigated. Based on the results, we propose an enhancement for Hybrid Coordination Fun...

IEEE 802.11, the standard of wireless local area networks (WLANs), allows the coexistence of asynchronous and time-bounded traffic using the distributed coordination function (DCF)...
The increase of IEEE 802.11’s bandwidth led to a deployment of many multimedia applications over wireless networks. Nevertheless, these applications impose stringent constraints...
— Hybrid Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols combine the strength of random and schedule based MAC schemes. From random MAC schemes, Hybrid MAC protocols borrow flexibility an...
