Abstract
In recent years, the convergence of wireless communication and data networking has established several emerging multi-hop wireless networking technologies. In this class of networks, no underling infrastructure, such as cellular layout and centralized control units (base stations), is available for networking support. A large number of networking devices are allowed to communicate with one another over the shared wireless medium in an ad-hoc manner. Wireless ad-hoc networks offer convenient, infrastructure–free data communication services to wireless users. Emerging applications for ad-hoc networking technology include distributed sensor networks, zero-configuration teleconferencing, data communications, etc. In such scenarios, users exchange information via communication–intensive applications, such as web browsing, video conferencing, file transferring, etc. This class of applications is mission critical and communication intensive. So a lot of researchers are concerned with many criteria such as: QoS, Mobility management, Network management, Security, Reliability, and Packet Scheduling Algorithms. Many researchers have developed numerous algorithms to address the problem of fair packet scheduling in wireless ad-hoc networks. Fair queueing in wireless ad-hoc network is challenging for several reasons. First, the wireless channel is shared among multiple contending nodes in a spatial locality. Location-dependent channel contention complicates the fairness notion. Second, the wireless channel capacity is a scarce resource. Spatial channel reuse should
