High Throughput Performance and Quality Issues of a Wimax System

Today there is a strong demand for broadband multimedia services and therefore it is important that a technology provides high bit rates to the end users. These high bit rates need to be provided to the end user in a wireless manner any time, in any location, even in harsh environmental conditions and at an acceptable quality. This paper presents experimental results of a Wimax system that follows the specifications of 802.16d 2004 standard, it depicts high bit rate measurements, it presents techniques for achieving low Bit Error Rates (BER) and discusses QoS issues for wireless 802.16d 2004 links.
