QoS support in 4/sup th/ generation mobile multimedia ad hoc networks

This paper addresses the problem of supporting real-time communications in a multihop mobile network using QoS routing, and presents evaluation results on the QoS routing model proposed by Aggelou (see Ph.D. Thesis, University of Surrey, 2001). In the performance experiments, we consider multimedia traffic flows with different QoS types and examine the system performance in various communication environments.
