•Use of the DiffServ weights shown gave a significant improvement in the TMS delay.
•Improvement of approximately 20% at saturation and
approximately 33% at high load were seen.
•This confirms that DiffServ-style QoS can make a significant improvement to prioritized flows in the Maritime environment.
•Further studies in OPNET could be completed to determine the impact of alternative WFQ weightings.
