Arbitration Inter Frame Spacing AIFS , in wireless LAN communications, is a method of prioritizing one Access Class AC over the other, such as giving voice or video priority over email. AIFS functions by shortening or expanding the period a wireless node has to wait before it is allowed to transmit its next frame. A shorter period means a message has a higher probability of being transmitted with low latency, which is particularly important for delay critical data such as voice or streaming video. AIFS is a time interval between frames being transmitted under the IEEE 802.11e IEEE 802.11e 2005 EDCA EDCA MAC address MAC . It depends on the Access Class and generally depends on the AIFSN, or AIFS number. AIFS is defined by the formula AIFSN AC ST SIFS, where the AIFSN depends on the Access Class.
