The IEEE 802.16 standard family enables the convergence of fixed and mobile broadband networks through a common wide area broadband access technology and a flexible network architecture. In this paper we provide an overview of the recent IEEE 802.16e-2005 amendment, aimed at supporting user mobility, and we discuss several issues related to a proper choice of system parameters and strategies to be adopted to fully exploit the technology potential. Moreover, we propose a scheduling strategy aimed at providing a fair service to best eff ort users. The effectiveness of this proposal is shown via simulation.

Abstract

The IEEE 802.16 standard family enables the convergence of fixed and mobile broadband networks through a common wide area broadband access technology and a flexible network architecture. In this paper we provide an overview of the recent IEEE 802.16e-2005 amendment, aimed at supporting user mobility, and we discuss several issues related to a proper choice of system parameters and strategies to be adopted to fully exploit the technology potential. Moreover, we propose a scheduling strategy aimed at providing a fair service to best eff ort users. The effectiveness of this proposal is shown via simulation.
