“…The buffer link capacity issues and challenges are discussed in [22], the work in [22] identifies the main issues related to buffer size in wireless networks and how it can impact the performance of the network, it identifies link scheduling, adaptive link rates, frame aggregation, variable packet inter-service time, and multihopping as the key challenges for buffer management in wireless domains. The work then suggests some possible alternative to overcome these challenges: single hope solutions, multi-hope solutions and Active queue management.…”

<p>Wireless networks are designed to provide the enabling infrastructure for emerging technological advancements. The main characteristics of wireless networks are: Mobility, power constraints, high packet loss, and lower bandwidth. Nodes’ mobility is a crucial consideration for wireless networks, as nodes are moving all the time, and this may result in loss of connectivity in the network. The goal of this work is to explore the effect of replacing the generally held assumption of symmetric radii for wireless networks with asymmetric radii. This replacement may have a direct impact on the connectivity, throughput, and collision avoidance mechanism of mobile networks. The proposed replacement may also impact other mobile protocol’s functionality. In this work, we are mainly concerned with building and maintaining fully connected wireless network with the asymmetric assumption. For this extent, we propose to study the effect of the asymmetric links assumption on the network performance using extensive simulation experiments. Extensive simulation experiments were performed to measure the impact of these parameters. Finally, a resource allocation scheme for wireless networks is proposed for the dual rate scenario. The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated using simulation.</p>

“…The novelty of WQM lies in the fact that it is designed to address the unique challenges of buffer sizing in wireless networks [22]. In reality, WQM is the first queue management technique that is designed to be aggregation-aware, that is to say it accounts for frame aggregation when selecting the optimal buffer size in wireless networks.…”

Buffer sizing of switching and routing devices is of significance to guarantee QoS of critical services in Internet of Things (IoT), continuously evolving scheduling mechanism and complex traffic characteristics pose new challenges to the traditional method of static buffer sizing based on the rule-ofthumb. In this paper, the scope of buffer sizing is extended from simple scheduling system under single traffic to integrated scheduling system under heterogeneous traffic input which is more ubiquitous. Voices, videos and other heterogeneous data in IoT are categorized into Short-Range Dependent (SRD) and Long-Range Dependent (LRD) traffic, and the integrated scheduling system is decomposed into Single-Server Single-Queue (SSSQ) systems, not only decoupling the complex dependence between heterogeneous traffic, but also taking into account the impact of SRD and LRD traffic burstiness on buffer size. On this basis, the expressions of relation between the minimum buffer size and overflow probability are derived in detail are presented. The numerical results show that the average rate, burst level and scheduling priority are positively correlated with the required buffer size, and when the overflow probability is set, the minimum buffer size is determined respectively. The achievements of this paper will provide a theoretical guidance for IoT manufacturers and technicians to set the optimal IoT devices buffer size.
