| Summary: | A number of QoS related research have been conducted in order to enhance the performance of wireless networks. The studies only focused on cross-layer designs and medium access control (MAC) layer. Cross-layer designs investigate the co-relationship between layers (application, MAC and physical) and consider these layers as one of the factors in resource decision-making. However, the MAC focused research only concentrates on the components in MAC layer, but not others. There are many aspects that contribute to QoS provisioning in a network. Among these, uplink/downlink scheduling, bandwidth request/grant process, call admission control, data mapping and hand-over mechanism are the major research topics. |
