Abstract :
In this paper we propose Adaptive Hierarchical Weighted Fair Queuing scheduling algorithm for WiMAX networks. We compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with the Weighted Fair Queuing scheduling algorithm. Comparison is done by simulating the traffic in a WIMAX network and by measuring Quality of Service aspects. Simulation results indicate that the proposed scheduling algorithm has better QoS aspects with all traffic loads.
