Voice over IP in Wireless Heterogeneous Networks

The focus of this book is on mechanisms that affect the VoIP user satisfaction while not explicitly involved in the media session. The book thus investigates and proposes cross-layer techniques for realizing time-efficient control mechanisms for VoIP.
