Station EDCA Parameters

 

 

 

Queue

Specifies the four ingress queues:

 

Data 0 (Voice) - High priority queue, with

 

minimum delay. The queue is used to

 

store time-sensitive data, such as VOIP

 

and streaming media.

 

Data 1 (Video): High priority queue, with

 

minimum delay. The queue is used to

 

store time-sensitive data, such as video

 

traffic.

 

Data 2 (best effort): Medium priority

 

queue, with minimum throughput and

 

delay. The queue is used to store most

 

traditional IP data.

 

Data 3 (Background): Lowest priority

 

queue, with high throughput. This queue

 

is used for bulk data that requires

 

maximum throughput and is not time-

 

sensitive, such as FTP packets.

 

 

AIFS (InterFrame Space)

Specifies the Arbitration Inter-Frame

 

Spacing (AIFS) value, which controls the

 

wait time for data frames. The wait time is

 

measured in slots and has a range of 1 to

 

15 slots.

 

 

cwMin (Minimum

Specifies a value that an algorithm uses to

Contention Window)

determine the initial random backoff wait

 

time (window) for resending packets

 

during a period of contention for Unified

 

Access Point resources.

 

This value is the upper limit (in

 

milliseconds) of a range from which the

 

access point determines the initial random

 

backoff wait time.
