—Due to the unreliable nature of the wireless medium, provisioning of the Quality of Service (QoS) in wireless LANs is by far more complicated than in wired networks. In this dem...
The popular IEEE 802.11 WLAN today does not provide any quality-of-service (QoS) because of its contention-based channel access nature of the medium access control (MAC). Therefore...
: In many emerging sensing applications, random network losses may lead to drop of critical information, rendering partially received data useless for the end users. A packet-marki...
