Abstract
We investigate the performance of the IEEE 802.11ac MAC layer Aggregation schemes in light of QoS guarantee with the use of an ARQ protocol, and in very high PHY rates. The investigation is done in different models of mapping Application flows into Traffic Streams and Access Categories. We show that when the IEEE 802.11ac ARQ protocol is used with relatively high bit error rates, it is not effective to use the full aggregation capability. Second, we show that there is not one best model of mapping Application flows into Traffic Streams and Access Categories. In particular, using two Access Categories is sometimes less efficient than using one.
