Abstract

This paper suggests the use of intelligent network-aware processing agents in wireless local area network drivers to generate metrics for bandwidth estimation based on real-time channel statistics to enable wireless multimedia application adaptation. Various configurations in the wireless digital home are studied and the experimental results with performance variations are presented.
