Quality of Service in Wireless Networks Over Unlicensed Spectrum: Routing CHAP TE R 5 5.1 INTRODUCTION Diverse wireless networks are becoming an integral part of the ubiquitous computing and commu- nication environment, providing new infrastructure for multiple applications such as video phone, multimedia-on-demand and others. In order to access multimedia information, certain level of Quality of Sertvice (QoS) needs to be considered such as high success ratio to access multimedia data, bounded end-to-end delay, low energy usage, high bandwidth rate, and others.

Abstract

CHAP TE R 5 5.1 INTRODUCTION Diverse wireless networks are becoming an integral part of the ubiquitous computing and commu- nication environment, providing new infrastructure for multiple applications such as video phone, multimedia-on-demand and others. In order to access multimedia information, certain level of Quality of Sertvice (QoS) needs to be considered such as high success ratio to access multimedia data, bounded end-to-end delay, low energy usage, high bandwidth rate, and others. We have dis- cussed some of the QoS and resource enforcement and adaptation techniques in Chapters 3 and 4, especially at the end-nodes to enable efficient multimedia data delivery. One function that remains to be discussed is the routing function that connects sources and destinations of information when it moves information/packets through the mobile or static multi-hop/ad hoc wireless network. Before we discuss the various routing aspects in more details, we present the routing function with its ties to higher layer functions via cross-layer design.
