The IEEE 802.11e EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) is able to provide QoS (Quality of Service) by adjusting the transmission opportunities (TXOPs), which control the period to access the medium. The EDCA has a fairness problem among competing stations, which support multimedia applications with different delay bounds. In this paper, we propose a simple and effective scheme for alleviating the fairness problem. The proposed scheme dynamically allocates the TXOP value based on the delay bounds of the data packets in a queue and the traffic load of network. Performance of the proposed scheme is investigated by simulation. Our results show that compared to conventional scheme, the proposed scheme significantly improves network performance, and achieves a high degree of fairness among stations with different multimedia applications.
