Abstract
The IEEE 802.11n network standard does not specify the scheduling mechanism for the packet aggregation and treats the packet the same without distinguishing them between real time and none real time. In this study, we have proposed a fair scheduling algorithm for the A-MSDU aggregation that transmits the MSDUs according to their priority based on their lifetime. The simulation results show an outstanding performance improvement can be achieved by applying the proposed fair scheduler as compared to the standard network protocol in terms of packet loss ratio and average delay.
