Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to propose a novel method for enhancing the Quality of Service (QoS) of multimedia applications in wireless adhoc networks. The enhancement is achieved by implementing a cross layer mapping algorithm, between application layer and Medium Access Layer where Connectionless Light Weight Protocol (UDPLite) is used in transport layer that supports multimedia applications. The Proposed method achieves 16% improvement in reduction of delay and 12.5% improvement in PSNR as compared to the conventional UDP Protocol under heavy traffic conditions.
