Test and Evaluation of WiMAX Performance Using Open-Source Modeling and Simulation Software Tools

Abstract

Recently, various efficient WiMAX quality of service-based uplink scheduling algorithms have been proposed. These algorithms have been analyzed theoretically and in many cases evaluated unilaterally using ad-hoc random simulation. A novel integration of open-source and freeware modeling and simulation software tools for performing comparative analysis of uplink scheduling algorithms is presented. This integrated open-source modeling and simulation solution is used to evaluate the effect on performance of various uplink scheduling algorithms within a real-world quality of service-constrained tactical-edge scenario.
