The IEEE-802.11e standard was published withthe goal of ensuring quality of service, especially with mul-timedia data. However, this standard only assigns differentpriorities for different types of data but does not controlthe sharing of bandwidth among different data flows. In thispaper, we will propose a method of sharing bandwidth forproportional data flows and controlling Contention Windowof each priority flow to achieve that ratio.  

With traffic increase in a wireless network beyond its capacity and as the number of connected devices continue to grow, the quality of service (QoS) degrades. In this paper we study the impact of mobility on throughput in the case of an infrastructure wireless network using IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi standard. Since we found in the literature that the mobility of stations can have an impact on the quality of service, we try to remedy to this by implementing a new access category reserved for mobile stations. First we compare the throughput between static and mobile nodes, both connected to a QoS station. Then we propose our new model that consists of adding a new access category used by mobile nodes regardless of their traffic category. The study was made by simulating different scenarios using Network Simulator-3 (NS-3). We found that the throughput may vary depending on the simulation scenario. The simulation results show that with the proposed solution the mobile nodes can have a better throughput.

IP networks are built around the idea of best effort networking, which makes no guarantees regarding the delivery, speed, and accuracy of the transmitted data. While this model is suitable for a large number of applications, and works well for almost all applications when the network load is low (and therefore there is no congestion), there are two main factors that lead to the need for an additional capability of quality of service guarantees. One is the fact that an increasing number of Internet applications are related to real-time and other multimedia data, which have greater service requirements in order to be satisfying to the user. The other is that Internet usage is steadily increasing, and although the network infrastructure is also updated often, it is not always certain that network resource offerings will be ahead of usage demand. In order to deal with this situation, IETF has developed two architectures in order to enable QoS-based handling of data flows in IP networks. This article describes and compares these two architectures.

Wireless security is the prevention of unauthorized access to computers using wireless networks .The trends in wireless networks over the last few years is same as growth of internet. Wireless networks have reduced the human intervention for accessing data at various sites .It is achieved by replacing wired infrastructure with wireless infrastructure. Some of the key challenges in wireless networks are Signal weakening, movement, increase data rate, minimizing size and cost, security of user and QoS (Quality of service) parameters... The goal of this paper is to minimize challenges that are in way of our understanding of wireless network and wireless network performance.

In internet market, content providers (CPs) continue to play a primordial role in the process of accessing different types of data. Competition in this area is fierce; customers are looking for providers that offer them good content (credibility of content and quality of service) with a reasonable price. In this work, the authors analyze this competition between CPs and the economic influence of their strategies on the market. The authors formulate their problem as a non-cooperative game among multiple CPs for the same market. Through a detailed analysis, the researchers prove uniqueness of a pure Nash Equilibrium (NE). Furthermore, a fully distributed algorithm to converge on the NE point is presented. In order to quantify how efficient the NE point is, a detailed analysis of the Price of Anarchy (PoA) is adopted to ensure the performance of the system at equilibrium. Finally, an extensive numerical study is provided to describe the interactions between CPs and to point out the importance of quality of service (QoS) and credibility of content in the market.

Resumen Voz sobre IP, VoIP, es uno de los servicios con mayor desarrollo bajo plataformas inalámbricas; actualmente se ha iniciado su implementación como alternativa frente a la PSTN (red pública conmutada). El interés por VoIP radica en su relación costo-beneficio, ya que las organizaciones pueden utilizar la misma plataforma de su red de datos para transmitir voz. Por lo anterior, es importante que la organización tenga claro que, para garantizar el buen funcionamiento del servicio de VoIP, es decir para ofrecer QoS, se debe realizar la medición de parámetros que afectan la calidad del servicio como lo son: el retardo, la variación del retardo, el ancho de banda y la pérdida de paquetes. Este artículo analiza y valida los parámetros de QoS necesarios para garantizar el buen funcionamiento del servicio de VoIP sobre la red inalámbrica del campus de la Universidad Icesi. Se realizan pruebas en diferentes escenarios para mostrar que no solo factores como el retardo, y su variación, influyen en la calidad de servicio, sino que también la intensidad de la señal que recibe el cliente desde los puntos de acceso.Palabras Clave: Voz sobre IP, Calidad de servicio, Pérdida de paquetes, Retardo, Variación del Retardo, Intensidad de Señal. Abstract VoIP is one of the services that has been developing over under this type of wireless platforms and today has begun to implement as an alternative to the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network). The interest in VoIP is its cost-benefit ratio, and that organizations can use the same platform for their data network to transmit voice. Therefore it is important that the organization is clear that to ensure the smooth operation of the VoIP service, ie provide QoS, you must perform the measurement of parameters that affect the quality of service such as: delay, jitter, bandwidth, packet loss. In this paper we analyze and validate the QoS parameters needed to ensure the smooth operation of VoIP over wireless network on the Icesi University campus. We performed a series of tests in different scenarios to show that not only factors such as delay and jitter influencing the quality of service, but also the client signal strength received from of the AP (Access Point).Keywords: Voice over IP, Quality of service, Packet Loss, Delay, Delay variation, signal intensity.

The spread out of wireless mesh network has made possible the extended range of communication network that are impractical due to environmental changes in a wired access point, these wireless mesh network does not require much competence to set it up as it can be set very fast at a cheap rate, and the conveyancing of messages in it happens by selecting the shortest path, these wireless mesh built-in with irrepressible and invulnerable identities come with an endurance to temporary congestion and individual node failure. This results in an architecture providing a better coverage, flaw indulgent with higher bandwidth compared to other wireless distributed systems. But faces the limitation on power conservation. The battery activated mesh nodes loses their resources on perception, processing and transmission of the data’s, though these batteries or accumulators comes with energy regaining capability still draw backs show up as their nature of energy regaining are unexposed. So the performance analysis of fly wireless network which proposes a uninterrupted wireless mesh networks aims at providing a best measure of performance that is the best quality of service on the meshwork by providing an improved energy gleaning using potency segregation (IGPS) which empowers each node to have self- contained accumulation of energy achieving heightened adaption with energy consumption kept at a minimum. The gross functioning of the proposed is examined on the bases of delay and packet loss to prove the quality of service acquired.

On the stage of today’s communications world, broadband mobile technologies are a continuously flourishing trend. In this context, WiMAX, a technology based on the IEEE 802.16 standards, currently plays a noteworthy role. Throughout the chapter we survey current literature related to the delivery of multimedia data in WiMAX systems and, most importantly, identify research areas in which promising improvement opportunities exist. We start by portraying how both market and technical conditions have encouraged the adoption of WiMAX, and then, by building upon a fundamentals introduction, we focus on issues related to capacity and frame assembly. We also identify relevant aspects related to scheduling and mapping between user applications and WiMAX services. We close the chapter with a discussion on quality of service in wireless systems and visit the mathematical background of opportunistic scheduling for WiMAX.
