Abstract :
In mobile cellular networks, bandwidth is deterministic in terms of number of channels by frequency division, time division, or code division. On the other hand, bandwidth partition schemes in the contention-based medium access control (MAC) in distributed wireless LANs are extremely challenging due to the contention-based nature. In this paper, we propose and study a dynamic bandwidth partition with finer-tune (DP-FT) scheme for integrated voice/video/data traffic in the IEEE 802.11e wireless LANs.
