- Additional information
- Conducted as part of the EU-H2020 Wi-5 project (644262, €2.1m, 2015-2018), this work is among the first contributions that address Quality of Service awareness in enterprise Wi-Fi networks using Software Defined Networking (SDN). It exploits the centralised and data flow-based nature of SDN to: a) identify the Quality of Service requirements of Wi-Fi users; b) determine the Access Points that could better satisfy these requirements; and c) associate the users’ devices to the Access Points. Some European telecommunication operators are considering adopting this work as a solution to better Wi-Fi connectivity provision to their customers.
