IEEE 802.16 mesh mode is positioned to be used as a wireless backbone network. In coordinated distributed scheduling (C-DSCH), when nodes transmit control messages to compete for channel access, they need to wait for some period of time called hold-off time to compete again. Network performance is sharply affected by the hold-off mechanism in the bandwidth reservation procedure. In this paper, a new...
In IEEE 802.16 networks, bandwidth allocation is centralized at the base station (BS). For the uplink traffic, data transmission is scheduled after the BS processes bandwidth requests (BW-REQs) sent by mobile stations (MSs). In this paper we focus on the multicast/broadcast polling method, where MSs send their BW-REQs during contention periods. Contention-based polling is deemed suitable for Best-Effort...
In this paper, we proposed a simple yet novel multicast scheduling scheme for IEEE 802.16e wireless metropolitan area networks. Specifically, we want to solve the problem that how the base station schedules the data in a multicast superframe such that mobile stations can receive their required multicast data and the total awake time of mobile stations is minimal. We first prove that this problem is...
According to different priority based services, IEEE 802.16e WiMAX standard classifies packets as UGS, RTPS, eRTPS, nRTPS, BE. The standard treats all packets generated while browsing the internet as delay tolerant packets and classifies them as Best Effort (BE) packets. This includes BE packets generated while browsing secure websites. However, secure transactions are governed by time constraints...
Worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) based wireless metropolitan area networks have recently received wide attention as they support high data rates with great quality of service (QoS) capabilities. In order to support QoS, bandwidth request (BW-REQ) mechanisms are suggested in the WiMAX standard for resource reservation. In this letter we propose a simple and accurate analytical...
