Abstract :
The IEEE 802.11e standard is intended to support applications with QoS requirements. However, such provisioning cannot be achieved when the network load is high. This paper introduces a new control mechanism which dynamically tunes the parameters of the 802.11e contention-based access method. The proposed mechanism aims at providing QoS as well as ameliorating the problem of delay asymmetry.
