Quality of Service Guarantee on 802.11 Networks

Overview Rether was originally developed to support guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) for shared Ethernet LANs. With the growing popularity of wireless LANs, this paper modified the Rether protocol to provide QoS guarantee on wireless networks. This paper presents the design and implementation of the Wireless Rether protocol for 802.11 networks. Wireless Rether supports QoS for TCP, UDP and ICMP traffic in both upstream and downstream directions. The protocol can seamlessly inter-operate with any priority-based QoS mechanisms (such as Diffserv) on the wired networks that connect the wireless access network to rest of the internet. QoS requirements of real-time applications are specified as a simple configurable policy table.
