Abstract (EN): Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) has attracted significant interest to support real-time communication. The most promising solution was recently published as IEEE 802.11e, which provide traffic differentiation. However, that solution still has an inadequate behavior to support real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a new traffic separation mechanism for IEEE 802.11e networks. Such Traffic Separation Mechanism (TSm) allows the coexistence of CSMA standard stations with modified (real-time) stations in the same network domain. We investigate the performance of TSm mechanism through computer simulations. We show the efectiveness of such scheme when the real-time traffic is kept at reduced loads or when we have only one producer real-time traffic station.
