Fuzzy packet size optimization for delay sensitive traffic in ad hoc networks
Tapio Frantti · 2009
In this paper is considered optimal packet size definition for delay sensitive traffic in WLAN based ad hoc networks. The aim of the paper is to introduce a fuzzy set theory based online sample size definition model, which optimize packet size of delay sensitive traffic for prevailing network conditions. The selected input parameters for the model are a packet error rate (PER) and a change of PER. The model was validated by simulating delay sensitive VoIP traffic. The results prove that the WLAN based ad hoc network with AODV routing and VoIP transactions has an optimal packet size. The results also demonstrate that the developed fuzzy model is able to set sample size values to the prevailing optimum level very fast.
