Abstract
A node is configured for transmitting a data packet over a wireless network according to a differentiated services control parameter. The node includes a controller configured to provide individualized control of the differentiated services code parameter and also to provide individualized control over a payload in the data packet. The controller is also configured to receive data to be transmitted over the wireless network, assign a priority level to the data, and adjust the differentiated services control parameter setting for the node based on the priority level. The controller is also configured to determine a signal quality indicator for the wireless network, and to adjust the amount of the data included in the payload based on the signal quality indicator.
