Abstract :
Transmitting multimedia streams over IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) with high performance and reliability is a challenging task. In the current paper, we study the basic problems that video transmission encounters in wireless LANs and we present some of the proposed solutions. In particular, we will outline the solutions that were selected for the 802.11aa amendment to the IEEE 802.11 standard in order to provide reliable and robust transport of video streams in IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs.
