Wireless Mesh Network, QoS Routing, Admission Control, Channel Reassignment, Cross-layer
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) extend and improve broadband Internet connectivity for the end-users roaming around the edges of the wired network. Amid the explosive escalation of users sharing multimedia content over the Internet, the WMNs need to support the effective implementation of various multimedia applications. The multimedia applications require assured quality of service (QoS) to fulfill the user requirements. The QoS routing in WMNs needs to guarantee the QoS requirements of multimedia applications. Admission control (AC) is the primary traffic control mechanism used to provide QoS provisioning. AC admits a new flow only if the QoS requirements of already admitted flows are not violated, even after the admission of a new flow. We propose a new QoS routing protocol integrated with AC called Delay-Sensitive QoS Routing with integrated Admission Control (DSQRAC) to control the admission of delay-sensitive flows. A delay-aware cross-layer routing metric is used to find the feasible path. DSQRAC is implemented using ad-hoc on-demand distance vector (AODV) routing protocol, where a delay-sensitive controlled flooding mechanism is used to forward the route request packets. In the proposed work, we adjust/reassign the channels to aid the QoS routing to increase the likelihood of accepting a new flow. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed QoS routing protocol is better than the existing schemes.
