Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Wide spread of Wireless LAN enables users enjoy ubiquitous Internet access for not only the traditional best-effort type application but also real-time applications such as voice. To support real time applications in Wireless LAN, the IEEE 802.11e enhances the legacy 802.11 MAC protocol with service differentiation and it is now installed in off-the-shelf wireless LAN cards. However, because the channel access method of IEEE 802.11e, EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access), is based on the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) of the legacy 802.11 MAC, it carries over the issues such as channel underutilization and uplink and downlink unfairness issues. In this paper, we target the latter issue, which is especially problematic for bidirectional applications, such as voice, and propose a scheme that mitigates the unfairness problem by enabling AP adaptively adjust TXOP. The proposed scheme is investigated by simulations and testbed experiments. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme provides fair communication performance for uplink and downlink traffic. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme can be implemented in the current hardware and network stack and can provide a promising system performance.
