IEEE 802.16 Wireless MANs (WMAN) aims to extend the wireless broadband access up to kilometers to facilitate the long-range 'last-mile' Solution. For short-range extension, IEEE 802.11 Wireless Distribution System (WDS) can be set up easily by connecting Access Points (AP) together to form multi-hop networks. This provides a quick, easy and low-cost solution up to hundreds meters. This paper examines the capacity challenges in delivering voice traffic over WLANs which are connected to IEEE 802.16 WMAN and IEEE 802.11 WDS.
