For IEEE 802.16 broadband wireless access (BWA) system, the support of QoS is of prime
importance for providing various traffic profiles in wireless links. Scheduling and resource …

In this paper, a cross-layer optimization mechanism for IEEE 802.16 metropolitan area
networks is introduced. The proposed scheme utilizes information provided by the Physical …

Quality of service (QoS) is an important issue in the deployment of broadband wireless
access networks with real-time and non-real-time traffic integration. In this study, the authors …

In this paper we propose and study a cross‐layer mechanism that can improve real‐time
QoS provisioning over IEEE 802.16 metropolitan area networks. This mechanism utilizes …

Scheduling algorithms are very important in WiMAX for the efficient use of radio resources.
However, the standard does not specify which scheduling algorithm (s) should be used. A …

In order to provide seamless handoff for QoS connections in 802.16-2004/WLAN
environment, a cross layer design approach is proposed to manage the bandwidth …
