used by WME-enabled clients/AP in a WME enabled BSS to realize different classes of
differentiated Channel Access.
A wireless Entity is defined as all wireless clients and APs in the wireless medium contending
for the common wireless medium. EDCA uses a separate channel access function for each of
the Access Categories (Index) within a wireless entity. Each channel access function in a
wireless entity that contends for the wireless medium as if it were a separate client contending
for the wireless medium. Different channel access functions in a given Wireless Entity contend
among themselves for access to the wireless medium in addition to contending with other
clients.
