Abstract

This research developed a novel algorithm to evaluate Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) metrics of different IEEE 802.11 technologies in order to identify the optimum network architecture among Basic Service Set (BSS), Extended Service Set (ESS), and the Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). The proposed algorithm will yield the rank order of different IEEE 802.11 technologies. By selecting the optimum network architecture and technology, the best overall network performance that provides a good voice quality is guaranteed. Furthermore, it meets the acceptance threshold values for the VoIP quality metrics. This algorithm was applied to various room sizes ranging from 2x3m to 10x14m and the number of nodes ranged from one to forty. The spatial distributions considered were circular, uniform, and random. The Quality of Service (QoS) metrics used were delay, jitter, throughput and packet loss.
