Abstract

How to get quality of service (QoS) support in the MAC layer is a hot topic in wireless ad hoc network (MANET). In this paper, a novel adaptive QoS model is presented in MANET, and its feasibility and reliability is analyzed and verified. Compared with traditional SWAN model, the proposed approach is improved by differentiated services in MAC layer in order to achieve high control rate of low-priority transactions. The simulations of the presented model are carried out and the results show that can improve the bandwidth utilization and increase the network throughput, as well as reduce transmission delay in MANET.
