Abstract

IEEE 802.16 standard, known as WiMAX (World Interoperability for Microwave Access), is expected to enable true broadband speeds over wireless networks at a cost point to enable mass market adoption. IEEE 802.16 Wireless MANs (WiMAX) aim to extend the wireless broadband access up to kilometers in order to facilitate both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connections. In this paper we propose an examination of transmission efficiency in wireless systems implementing IEEE 802.16 standard. Transmission performances were extracted from different scenarios considering: throughput, jitter, average end-to-end delays, number of active sessions, handover delays.
