TLDR
This survey observes that instead of providing deterministic QoS guarantees, majority of the protocols follow a service differentiation approach by classifying the data packets according to their type (or classes) and packets from different classes are treated according totheir requirements by tuning the associated network parameters at the MAC layer.
