摘要：For the past few years, the scope of optimization techniques has been widened at a rapid rate in order to unravel a variety of design problems in cellular networks, with a clear vision to save cost as well as to improve the quality of the overall network. In real life scenario, we have varying geographic locations to set up a cellular network that include sparse as well as dense populated areas. WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a cell-based technology specified by the IEEE 802.16 standard that supports quality of service (QoS) mechanisms and enables high- quality levels of applications such as VoIP. In this research paper, we have highlighted the results obtained through simulation carried out on OPNET modeler to deduce that IEEE 802.16 networks perform differently for different network traffic, number of mobile nodes, distance from base station and mobile speed. The measured performance metrics like throughput, delay etc will positively lend us a hand while implementing WiMAX for developed urban areas like suburbs of Punjab.
