WiMAX (802.16) White Papers
WiMAX Capacity White Paper
Overview This white paper discusses factors influencing system capacity in IEEE 802.16 networks. IEEE 802.16, commonly known by its industry forum moniker of WiMAX, a wireless protocol intended for establishing metropolitan area networks that supply broadband data and voice services. The present standards document, IEEE 802.16-2004 as amended by IEEE 802.16- 2005, is more accurately regarded as a family of distinct physical layer standards sharing a common media access layer. This family of physical layers includes separate standards for single-carrier, and two distinct orthogonal multi-carrier physical layers.

Throughput and Capacity of MIMO WiMAX
The work in this paper presents physical layer throughput measurement results of a WiMAX link implemented according to IEEE 802.16-2004. The measurements were carried out in an alpine and an...
Leveraging 802.16e WiMAX Technology in License-Exempt Bands
License-exempt spectrum bands make it possible for operators who do not have access to licensed spectrum to deploy wireless broadband networks. Traditionally vendors have developed specific solutions for license-exempt operators,...
A Cooperative MAC for Distributed Space-Time Coding in an IEEE 802.16 Network
In the next-generation WiMAX system, cooperative communication is being considered as an advanced technique to increase the throughput and improve the signal quality. In a cooperative scenario, multiple stations can...
Measurement Based Throughput Evaluation of Residual Frequency Offset Compensation in WiMAX
WiMAX utilizes a physical-layer based on OFDM that is very sensitive to carrier frequency offset. Even though most of this offset can be compensated using the initial training sequence, there...
