This paper presents an admission control mechanism for multi-rate wireless ad hoc networks. Admission control depends on precise estimates of bandwidth available in the network and the bandwidth required by a new flow. Estimating these parameters in wireless ad hoc networks is challenging due to the shared and open nature of the wireless channel. Available bandwidth can only be determined by also considering interference at neighboring nodes. Also, due to self-interference of flows the required bandwidth of a flow varies for each link of a route. The proposed admission control mechanisms is integrated with a hop-by-hop ad hoc routing protocol, thus enabling it to identify alternate routes if the shortest path is congested.
