Voice Over an OFDM Based Wireless LAN

whitepaper It is argued that traditional "voice over IP" (VoIP) approaches are inefficient for wireless LANs in terms of system overheads, and that more recent proposals, such as the "5- UP" protocol, offer greater promise with the co-existence of OFDM, for...
