Performance Study of IEEE802.11e QoS in EDCF-Contention-based Static and Dynamic Scenarios
英文摘要：
In this paper, we carry-out a study of the Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism in IEEE802.11e Enhanced Distribution Coordination Function (EDCF) and how it is achieved by providing traffics with different priorities. It can perform the access to the radio channel or just simply it can considerably be declined subsequently to a variation of network dynamicity. The results of the proposed analysis show that the EDCF scheduler looses the ability of the traffic differentiation and becomes insensitive to the QoS priority requirements. Consequently, it goes away from the region of stability and EDCF doesn't offer better performance than the conventional DCF scheme. Therefore, traffic specifications are weakly applied only for the channel occupation time distribution. During the handoff between the Base Stations (BS's), the response time of the data rate application within the roaming process grows to the initial throughput level. Performance metrics at the MAC layer, like throughput, End-2-End delay, and packet loss have been evaluated.
