Enabling Techniques Design For Qos Provision In Wireless Communications, Penghui Mi

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Guaranteeing Quality of Service (QoS) has become a recognized feature in the design of wireless communications. In this thesis, the problem of QoS provision is addressed from different prospectives in several modern communication systems.

In the first part of the thesis, a wireless communication system with the base station (BS) associated by multiple subscribers (SS) is considered, where different subscribers require different QoS. Using the cross-layer approach, the conventional single queue finite state Markov chain system model is extended to multiple queues' scenario by combining the MAC layer queue status with the physical layer channel states, modeled by finite state …
