Abstract :
This paper presents a framework to approximate the distribution of the frame delay in the IEEE 802.11 WLAN. Two schemes are also provided to demonstrate the trade-off between complexity and accuracy. Based on the simulation results, scheme 1 can approximate the delay distribution well and scheme 2 is very fast. For the WLAN networks with delay QoS requirement, this paper provides an efficient method to develop admission control algorithm or tune system parameters.
