In recent years, the integration of Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) has become one of the most promising broadband access solutions. The EPON network provides tremendous bandwidth while the WiMAX network can support mobility. Integration of PON and WiMAX combines the best of both technologies. However, the integration requires ...

Security support is mandatory for any communication networks. For wireless systems, security support is even more important to protect the users as well as the network. Since wireless medium is available to all, the attackers can easily access the network and the network becomes more vulnerable for the user and the network service provider. Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax...

Wired WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) technology emerged as the most widely used network. is suitable for those who need internet. By using will be found various advantages its users. Likewise with WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability Microwave Access) wireless technology, basically has a function similar to WLAN, but certain small differences. can cover one local area, in contrast which metrop...

WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) embodies the IEEE 802.16 family of standards that provisionwireless broadband access.With the IEEE 802.16e−2005 mobility amendment, WiMAX promises to address the ever-increasing demand for mobile high speed wireless data in fourth-generation (4G) networks. WiMAX market studies continue to project increased subscriber growth rates and plann...

WiMAX: An analysis of the existing technology and compare with the cellular networks. Abstract Broadband access technology has significant influences in the telecommunication industry. Worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) is a broadband wireless technology which brings broadband experience to a wireless context. There are two different types of broadband wireless services. On...

the emergence of WiMAX has attracted significant interests from all the fields of wireless communications including students, researchers, systems engineers and operators. The WiMAX can also be considered to be the main technology in the implementation of other networks like wireless sensor networks. Developing an understanding of the WiMAX system can be best achieved by looking at a model of t...

With the advent of IMT-Advanced, for the first time the target throughput obtained from wireless networks became comparable with wired counterparts. LTE and WiMAX have been the two main standards developed by 3GPP. The need to enhance the LTE and WiMAX has been driven by demand for higher spectral resources by the smart wireless devices in place of conventional phones. This transition from LTE ...

Mobile WiMAX is the technology that guarantee broadband wireless access over long distance. In order to maintain mobility and constant network connectivity in mobile WiMAX, it is necessary to provide handoff. Handoff is an crucial process in wireless networks to promise continuous and effective services. But in Handoff there occurs a problem called Handoff delay. In order to optimize handoff de...

WiMAX is basically described as the IEEE 802. 16 standard for Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) that was developed to provide high transmission data rates over larger areas and also to those areas users where broadband coverage is not available. MIMO systems are also of major interest in the field of wireless communication as it allows data to be sent and received over different antennas. WiMAX-M...

In 4G networks, the meshing of WiMAX and WLAN has been a tough task. Issues regarding intermeshing of WIMAX and WLAN networks during vertical handoff have to be analyzed. Two interconnected networks such as WIMAX and WLAN has been proposed. Our proposed scheme provides better connectivity between fixed and mobile stations. In our proposed framework, two heterogeneous networks have been intercon...
