Abstract

In this paper, the contention based access mode with a finite retry limit in the IEEE 802.16 media access control (MAC) protocol is modeled and analyzed. In addition, we provides an insight on the effects of various parameters involved in the bandwidth request mechanism on the system performance. The accuracy of the analytical model is verified by simulations.
