Abstract :
IEEE 802.16 based wireless access scheme (commonly known as WiMAX) is considered as one of the most promising wireless broadband access schemes for communication networks in metropolitan areas today. One of the most challenging tasks in the access scheme is the need to support quality of service (QoS). The paper proposes a priority based bandwidth allocation mechanism in WiMAX networks which is compliant with the standards.
