Abstract

Multimedia users are numerously increasing with the increase in Internet users. To be able to provide QoS to such users, it is important to understand how VBR multimedia QoS varies with its bandwidth characteristics. In this paper, we proposed a generic mathematical model for variable-bit-rate multimedia QoS which is applicable to various wireless network systems. This paper comprises of characteristic function for variable-bit-rate multimedia QoS using bandwidth terminology, such as minimum bandwidth of the connection and maximum bandwidth acceptable condition. We have provided numerical results required for verification and validation of the proposed model. This model is very useful for understanding how the wireless system behaves in terms of QoS while allocating bandwidth to variable-bit-rate multimedia traffic.
