Meanwhile, with the spread of the wireless local area network (WLAN) environment, there is growing demand for support for real-time traffic over WLAN. In this paper, we propose a modified MAC protocol that supports voice traffic over the IEEE 802.11 WLAN. The proposed scheme adapts the power-saving (PS) mode of the IEEE 802.11 specifications such that it rivals the TDMA mode in carrying real-time traffic and is compatible with the IEEE 802.11 standard. Simulation results obtained for the proposed scheme show that it does not degrade the performance of CSMA/CA, i.e., the contention mode of IEEE 802.11, and that it provides good voice quality for WLAN.
