ABSTRACT
In the last few decades, VoIP over wireless has received a considerable amount of attention. Since wireless networks based on the IEEE 802.11 standard are popular and have been widely deployed, it is natural to study the transmission of VoIP traffi c over 802.11 networks. Numerous studies have been carried out to evaluate the performance of VoIP traffi c over 802.11 networks. However, most of these studies are concentrated on one-hop situations; only a few works have addressed the topic of supporting audio application over multihop, ad hoc networks. Multihop networks are more fl exible and have many applications, and it would be valuable to investigate VoIP performance in these situations.
