PACKET-LEVEL SERVICE DIFFERENTIATION FOR QUALITY OF SERVICE PROVISIONING OVER WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORKS
摘要
<p>The invention provides a packet prioritizer for use with a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (110). In one embodiment, the packet prioritizer (115) includes a priority tagger configured to provide a packet priority for a WLAN packet. Additionally, the packet prioritizer also includes a priority scheduler coupled to the priority tagger and configured to provide a strict priority scheduling of the WLAN packet through the WLAN access point based on the packet priority.</p>
