Claim:
1. An aggregated-media access control protocol data unit (A-MPDU) scheduling apparatus, comprising: a delay setting processor configured to set a required delay time period for each access category (AC); a storage configured to store a traffic identification (TID) of a packet in a queue of a corresponding AC when the packet arrives; a delay time calculating processor configured to calculate a margin of time by subtracting, from the required delay time period, a time period of a first packet staying in the queue and a time period required for the transmission of the configured A-MPDU; and an A-MPDU configuring processor configured to aggregate, in an A-MPDU, packets currently stacked in the queue, when the margin of time is less than a time period required for transmitting a single packet, the single packet having an average length.
