Abstract
This paper proposes an analytical model to calculate VoIP (Voice of IP) capacity over wireless LANs with frequent bit errors. Since the traditional analytical models for VoIP capacity have not included the effect of bit errors, simulations ould only evaluate VoIP capacity over erroneous channels. For analytically accurate estimation of VoIP capacity over noisy channels, we extend the conventional model to include the effect of propagation errors, end-to-end delay, voice quality, the waiting time in AP(Access Point). The experiments show that our model predicts the VoIP capacity of a given network within the range from 3% to 9% difference comparing with the simulation results.
