Abstract

IEEE 802.16e, known as mobile WiMAX, has gained much attention recently for its capability to support high transmission rates in cellular environments and QoS for different applications. Beyond what the standard can define, in order to effectively support video streaming, VoIP, and data services, proprietary radio resource management, including multiconnection assignment, scheduling controls, and call admission controls, are essential. In this study we evaluate the downlink performance of a mobile WiMAX cellular system with different radio resource management, especially the scheduler for QoS control and the implementation of multiconnection for streaming applications
