Transmission policies and traffic management in multimedia wireless networks

Wireless Networks Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We consider multimedia wireless networks in environments where traffic characterizations and traffic rates are generally time‐varying. For such networks we propose a CDMA transmission policy, in conjunction with a moving boundaries concept induced by a traffic monitoring high‐level protocol. The proposed transmission/traffic management technique is analyzed and numerically evaluated.
