<p>A method for managing quality of service (QoS) in a wireless local area network begins by receiving a traffic flow (302). The traffic flow is mapped to a traffic class (TC), based on QoS requirements of the traffic flow (304). A transmission budget of an access class (AC) is calculated, each AC including at least one TC (306). A determination is made whether the traffic flow can be admitted, by calculating whether the transmission budget can support the traffic flow (308). If the traffic flow is admitted, the parameters of the TC are adjusted and collisions in the TC between existing traffic flows and the newly admitted traffic flow are managed (314).</p> |
