- Admission Control and Service Differentiation Based qos Provisioning for Mobile Ad Hoc Network
- Service differentiation is the key to today's Internet QoS. However the assumption of static network topology and stability of links make the direct application of DiffServ in mobile ad hoc networks unfeasible. This paper presents admission control and service differentiation mechanism that works only in network layer and does not...

- Quality of Service Aware MAC Based on IEEE 802.11 for Multihop Ad-Hoc Networks
- Real-time multimedia applications necessitate predictable network resources. Quality of Service (QoS) support for such applications in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) requires acceptable channel conditions, QoS-aware mechanisms for channel access, identification of proper forwarding (transit) nodes, as well as measures for congestion prevention and management in those nodes. This paper...
