Unfair and Inefficient Share of Wireless LAN Resource among Uplink and Downlink Data Traffic and Its Solution
Summary :
Wireless LANs (Local Area Networks) are currently spreading over diverse places such as hotels and airports, as well as offices and homes. Consequently, they provide convenient and important ways to access the Internet. Another type of communication model, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) communication on the Internet, has also attracted much attention, and P2P over wireless LANs will soon be very common. There are concerns about the capability of wireless stations (STAs) to send a large amount of traffic on an uplink. In this paper, we first clarify some issues that arise in this context by examining the feature of the Access Point(AP). Furthermore, we consider the role of the AP and propose, as a solution, ways of enabling both efficient and fair transmission over both the downlink and uplink. We evaluate the proposed schemes through simulations and show that communications over the uplink and downlink can share the wireless LAN access resource effectively. Furthermore, we show that coordinating our solution with the 802.11e Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) can meet the different requirements of various types of traffic.
