Subarna Das, Shalli Rani . Investigative Analysis and Comparison of WiMAX under Different Scenarios. International Journal of Computer Applications. 176, 39 ( Jul 2020), 5-10. DOI=10.5120/ijca2020920483
Starting from a straightforward telephony application to various multimedia applications, must require a specific set of protocols. WiMAX is a concept of having different protocol sets that can be handpicked for an efficient transcribing process for data collection. BWA-MAN (Broadband Wireless Access to a Metropolitan Area Network) technology, based on the IEEE- based 802.16 standards, provides wireless-based access over vast distances in different techniques from a single point to multipoint point communication or multipoint to mobile telephony access. Lower cost deployment with a wider coverage area is one of the features of it. In the presented article, the simulation results of basic performance parameters of the WiMAX network like Data Rate, Throughput, Transmitted, and Received Packet Rate are studied, and the functionality of WiMAX is elaborated in detail. To investigate the features and functionality of the WiMAX network, a different scenario for the Static and Dynamic WiMAX network is developed. OPNET 14.0 was utilized in this research to investigate various performance statistics and to promote the different scenarios of WiMAX. The static WiMAX network is observed to be better as compared to the dynamic in some parameters, but the flexibility of mobility is to be compromised. The results obtained in work show the efficiency of the network for different requirements, present, and future demand. Further on, It is also investigated that Mobile WiMAX can be preferred for its features like sufficient internet speed and VoIP services.
