Abstract:
This paper proposes a new QoS control method for the ad hoc Wireless LAN (W-LAN), which adjusts the Contention Window (CW) size dynamically based on the required and achieved bit rate. By the proposed method, a node with higher bit rates can have better chance to send the data in order to satisfy the Quality of Service (QoS) requirement. This paper also shows the effectiveness of the proposed method based on the results of computer simulations.
