Abstract
This paper proposed an IPB-frame Adaptive Mapping Mechanism (AMM) to improve the video transmission quality over IEEE 802.11e Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Based on the frame structure of hierarchical coding technology, the probability of each frame allocated to the most appropriate Access Category (AC) was dynamically updated according to its importance and traffic load of each AC. Simulation results showed the superior performance of the proposed AMM by comparing with three other existing mechanisms in terms of three objective metrics.

Providing Service Guarantees in 802.11e EDCA WLANs with Legacy Stations
Although the EDCA access mechanism of the 802.11e standard supports legacy DCF stations, the presence of DCF stations in the WLAN jeopardizes the provisioning of the service guarantees committed to the EDCA stations. The reason is that DCF stations ...
Feasible HCCA Polling Mechanism for Video Transmission in IEEE 802.11e WLANs
IEEE 802.11e standard defines two Medium Access Control functions to support Quality of Service (QoS) for wireless local area networks: Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) and HCF Controlled Channel Access (HCCA). EDCA provides fair prioritized ...
Proportional fair throughput allocation in multirate IEEE 802.11e wireless LANs
Under heterogeneous radio conditions, Wireless LAN stations may use different modulation schemes, leading to a heterogeneity of bit rates. In such a situation, 802.11 DCF allocates the same throughput to all stations independently of their transmitting ...
