Abstract

Today everyone is living in a gold rush of wireless communication worldwide. If we look around, we will find wireless communication happening everywhere. In our home, small routers are providing us with wireless access to the internet in offices, shopping centers, cafes, universities, and so on. In this article, a mechanism has been introduced by combining service differentiation and packet aggregation in IEEE 802.11-based WMNs. The result is IEEE802.11b is the most reliable standard among all other wireless standards. Changes required in modulation techniques so that their overhead can be decreased and data can travel in more effective and efficient way.

Highlights

  • Wi-Fi hotspots are available all around, most of these Wireless local area networks relay on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standards (Stallings, 2009).According to Akyildiz et al (2005), wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is becoming popular in the last few years

  • A mechanism has been introduced by combining service differentiation and packet aggregation in IEEE 802.11-based WMNs

  • DCF is the main medium access control (MAC) method in 802.11b, and it is important for the analysis of all quality of service (QoS) parameters on IEEE 802.11b to assess its performance ( Liu et al, 2010)

Summary

Introduction

IEEE 802.11, RTS/CTS, DCF, quality of service (QoS) According to Akyildiz et al (2005), wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) is becoming popular in the last few years. A mechanism has been introduced by combining service differentiation and packet aggregation in IEEE 802.11-based WMNs. This architecture does not require any modification to the IEEE 802.11 MAC and can be readily deployed exploiting off-the-shelf hardware.
