Abstract :
An analytical traffic model and three queue management schemes are developed for a heterogeneous multihop mobile ad hoc network (MANET). The traffic model is built by a two-dimensional Markov process and some important performance metrics are developed. Based on the obtained metrics, three queue management schemes with QoS (quality of service) provisioning are developed for dynamic traffic conditions. Performance comparisons among the three schemes are presented
