Abstract: Abstract Ad hoc networks were created to provide communication between peers without any network infrastructure. They could help in a hostile environment for military and rescue entities, and also for commercial applications such as gaming or facilities for networking. To improve the provided services on those networks, many quality of service (QoS) frameworks have been proposed to improve the performance of ad hoc networks, and to offer many possibilities for important applications to use priorities, admission control, or quasi guarantees. The dynamicity of ad hoc networks introduces complexity for such QoS schemes. In this chapter, we offer a summary of all existing ad hoc protocols at different levels of the network architecture and the proposed QoS frameworks.
