Architecture and method for efficient application of QoS in a WLAN

摘要

Architecture and method for quality of service (QoS) for multimedia and voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) applications in a wireless network, for example, a wireless local area network (WLAN). A QoS agent may be provided for a WLAN client to provide traffic profiles, parameters, and/or configuration settings to describe how an application may be executed with a desired QoS. A QoS agent may provide implementation of certain parameters and/or configurations to establish a data path that will provide a QoS for a traffic flow generated by a QoS application.
