Abstract

With the expansion of real-time applications for mobile ad hoc networks the need for quality of service (QoS) support has become essential. Providing QoS in this kind of networks is a big challenge requiring a complex QoS model or framework. This paper deals with quality of service models in mobile wireless ad hoc networks, provides a brief overview of existing models and describes a new QoS framework based on the extension of existing QoS models. Proposed QoS framework increases service differentiation in the network and provides them various QoS levels. It also improves one-way delay as a QoS network parameter. We validated our proposal by means of network simulation. This paper also presents simulation scenarios and evaluation details.
