DQRUMA (Distributed-Queueing Request Update Multiple Access) protocol has been proposed as an access protocol for the wireless ATM Local Area Networks. DQRUMA protocol is useful to transmit fixed-length packets (e. g. ATM cells). However, it cannot be applied to multimedia environment because it does not include any access control policy for multimedia traffic. In the paper, we propose a slot assignment scheme of DQRUMA protocol in wireless ATM LAN which supports integrated multimedia traffic with different service requirements. In this scheme we can allocate network resources according to the service requirements of each medium because the base station assigns Transmit-Permission flexibly according to the features of each medium.
