Abstract
The disclosure provides a method and device for enhancing Quality of Service (QoS) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). The method for enhancing QoS in the WLAN includes the steps of: adding a message category in a wireless access point (S10); adding a QoS priority transmission queue according to the added message category and setting queue attributes (S11); performing QoS scheduling by using the added transmission queue and performing data transmission (S12). The device for enhancing QoS in the WLAN can ensure that a wireless full service is carried out normally according to requirements of users by expanding the message categories in Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) QoS, adding a wireless priority queue correspondingly, and using a policy of discarding a message intelligently and the like, thereby enhancing QoS to improve the user experience.
