Providing QoS support through scheduling in WiMAX systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The WiMAX system outlines support for quality of service (QoS) through several service classes differentiation. However, no specific scheduling has been defined to carry the task. In this paper, we propose a simple and standard-compliant scheduling algorithm for downlink and uplink connections. The proposed algorithm calculates and grants the needed resources in terms of slots based on the QoS requirements and the priority of the service classes. The simulation results show that the scheduling algorithm has fulfilled the QoS provisions of all service classes of WiMAX system in terms of delay and throughput requirements.

Cross-layer QoS support framework and holistic opportunistic scheduling for QoS in single carrier WiMAX system
Providing Quality of Service (QoS) to different service classes with real-time and non-real-time traffic integration is an important issue in WiMAX systems. Opportunistic MAC (OMAC) is a novel view of communication over spatiotemporally varying wireless links. It combines the features of a cross-layer design and an opportunistic scheduling scheme to achieve high utilizationwhile providing QoS t...

WiMAX is a well-known broadband wireless access technology that supports multimedia transmission users. IEEE 802.16e has evolved into five quality of service (QoS) scheduling types for WiMAX uplink transmissions, but downlink transmission types have not yet been defined. To assist in this task, and to support efficient base station packet scheduling that takes QoS into account, I propose an ada...
