The increase of IEEE 802.11’s bandwidth led to a deployment of many multimedia applications over wireless networks. Nevertheless, these applications impose stringent constraints...
The paper presents the performance advantage of Wireless Token Ring Protocol (WTRP) versus IEEE 802.11 in DCF mode. WTRP is a medium access control (MAC) protocol and is designed ...
