A comprehensive review on VoIP over Wireless LAN networks
Kashif Nisar · 2010
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is one of the most important technologies in the world of communication. Around, 20 years of research on VoIP, some Quality of Service (QoS) problems of VoIP are still remaining. During the past decade and with growing of wireless technologies, we have seen that many papers turn their concentration from Wired-LAN to Wireless-LAN. VoIP over Wireless LAN (WLAN) faces many challenges, due to the loose nature of wireless network. Issues like providing QoS at a good level, dedicating capacity for calls and having secure calls is more difficult rather than wired LAN. Therefore VoIP over WLAN (VoWLAN) remains a challenging research topic. In this survey we consolidate and address all VoWLAN issues.
