Abstract

This paper presents a new dynamically adaptable medium access method that can be applied to home networks in order to create a distributed environment for multimedia and data processing services. The method uses a mechanism that detects silent periods in voice transmissions and dynamically allocates the available bandwidth between isochronous and asynchronous traffic. Keywords: Wireless LAN, Access protocol, Integrated voice-data communication, Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN).
