IEEE 802.16 standard defines the wireless broadband technology called WiMAX. When compared to other wireless technologies, it introduces many interesting advantages at PHY, MAC, and QoS layers. Heavy simulations are needed to study IEEE 802.16 performance and propose further enhancements to this standard. Link level simulations are not always sufficient, while system level simulators are not always accurate to capture MAC and transport protocol details. We implemented a 802.16 extension for the NS-2 network simulator. It includes upper PHY modeling, almost all the features of the 802.16 MAC layer, as well as the QoS framework. This article describes the implemented features, simulation methodology, and shares our experience that can be used with other NS-2 modules. An overview of research papers, where this implementation was used, is given.
