Implementation of Quality of Service into Wireless Networks

Wireless networks are currently the frequent access connection to the local network or the Internet. Until 2005 there was no support in the 802.11 standard priority data and the use of multimedia services in these networks is problematic. Thesis deals with the standard IEEE 802.11 standard and quality of service support including IEEE 802.11e. They discussed methods of access to transmission medium, differences in the MAC sublayer, the reader issues in the transmission of priority data and the requirements for these data. In Opnet Modeler was created wireless network with access points and stations on which they are carried out simulations at different strain of transmitted data. It studied the difference in the use of DCF and EDCF method, used in the network with QoS support. In particular, it examined the behavior of priority voice and video data in both networks. The focus is on key parameters such as throughput, dropping data, packet loss, delay, jitter and the size of broadcasting front. The measured data are analyzed, and differences in the network without the support and promoting the quality of services are compared and evaluated. Part of this work is the role of laboratory in the Opnet Modeler
