A summary of QoS support in SWAN

SWAN (Seamless Wireless ATM Network) uses ATM technology to provide integrated services to mobile terminals in an indoor setting. Variability caused by wireless access and mobility make this a very different environment for ATM, specifically for supporting QoS. This paper provides a summary of QoS support in SWAN, including a scheme for renegotiating QoS in response to changes in available bandwidth. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate its operation and effectiveness.
