Abstract
The WLAN and WiMAX standards are candidate solutions for a low-cost broadband wireless network. Interworking the two networks, using the network-layer QoS mechanisms of the Next Generation Network, will allow them to complement each other. This paper proposes integrating the WLAN and WiMAX link-layer QoS mechanisms of the NGN to ensure that QoS is maintained over the wireless link. The wireless QoS mechanism in WLAN and WiMAX are analyzed and an integration framework is proposed.
