— Multiuser diversity refers to a type of diversity present across different users in a fading environment. This diversity can be exploited by scheduling transmissions so that us...
We consider wireless LANs such as IEEE 802.11 operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum. While their nominal bit rates have increased considerably, the MAC layer remains practica...

Abstract--In a wireless network, with the aid of rate adaptation, multiuser diversity can be exploited by allowing the mobile user with the best channel to use the channel. However...
– The IEEE 802.11e is the extension to enhance the wireless Medium Access Control (MAC) Quality of Service (QoS) for applications requiring real time services. The IEEE 802.11b i...
