In this paper, we address the problem of supporting adaptive QoS resource management in mobile ad hoc networks, by proposing an efficient model for providing proportional endto- end QoS between classes. The effectiveness of our proposed solution in meeting desired QoS differentiation at a specific node and from end-to-end are assessed by simulation using a queueing network model implemented in QNAP. The experiments results show that the proposed solution provides consistent proportional differentiation for any service class and validates our claim even under bursty traffic and fading channel conditions.
