Abstract

Bandwidth is an important network resource type that contributes to determine the quality of service. Several research works have investigated on the issue of bandwidth allocation both in fixed networks and wireless networks. However, providing appropriate bandwidth allocation in order to satisfy the quality of service requirements and to ensure the fairness of applications in the converged environment of the new network generation is still a challenging task due to the unpredictable channel error property. This paper discuss some issues related to bandwidth allocation in wireless IP networks and proposes a compensation mechanism for the trade-off between quality of service guarantee and effective use of the limited wireless bandwidth and for ensuring the fairness in bandwidth allocation.
