In this paper we address the problem of designing error protection mechanisms for Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols with Quality of Service (QoS) constraints. The analysis focuses on the typical case of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) which are characterized by slowly time-varying channels. An analytical approach to efficient management of transmission, formalized as an optimization problem, is presented, and an algorithm for error protection and control for both real-time and non-real-time services is proposed.

Abstract
In this paper we address the problem of designing error protection mechanisms for Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols with Quality of Service (QoS) constraints. The analysis focuses on the typical case of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) which are characterized by slowly time-varying channels. An analytical approach to efficient management of transmission, formalized as an optimization problem, is presented, and an algorithm for error protection and control for both real-time and non-real-time services is proposed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
