Abstract :
In this paper, we propose Sniff and Embark (Sniff) protocol, a novel frame sniffing and token passing based approach to provide QoS in WLANs. Our simulations show that S^E performs significantly better than EDCF over the performance metrics - delay, jitter and time- constrained frame drop ratio.
