Abstract

Voice over Internet Protocol VoIP is growing rapidly during this decade. VoIP is seen as a short-term and long-term transmission for voice and audio traffic and is moving on Wireless Local Area Networks WLANs based on IEEE 802.11 standards. Currently, packet scheduling algorithms like Weighted Fair Queuing WFQ, was mainly designed to provide the bandwidth reservation. The Strict Priority SP is low-cost to maintain the delay sensitive voice traffic. Also, a number of research scheduling solutions have been proposed like General processor sharing GPS, Deficit Round Robin DRR, Contention-Aware Temporally fair Scheduling CATS. Unfortunately, the current scheduling won't be able to handle the VoIP packets properly and they have drawbacks over real-time applications. The objective of this research is to propose a Fourth Stage of Voice Priority Queue VPQ packet scheduling and algorithm to ensure more throughput, fairness and efficient packet scheduling for VoIP performance of queues and traffics. A new scheduler flexible which is capable of satisfying the VoIP traffic flows. Experimental topologies on NS-2 network simulator were analyzed for voice traffic.
