چکیده

The knowledge on handover behaviour in WiMAX network is essential for network management and planning in order to achieve optimum system throughput. In this paper we have analysed the handover behaviour of transparent relay in several configurations for the IEEE 802.16j Mobile Multihop Relay (MMR) WiMAX network. The simulation was performed using NCTUns tool and adopted the hard handover mechanism for three different relay network topologies with varying mobile station speeds. The result shows the handover for internal network is faster than the external network and by appropriate relay deployment the system throughput can be increased up to 14.39%.

Simulation of Hard Hand over (HHO) Mechanism in IEEE 802.16j Transparent Mode networks

Two different relay modes are defined in IEEE 802.16j WIMAX standard: transparent mode and non-transparent mode. IEEE 802.16j standard supports mobile station mobility; it defines three kinds of hand over mechanism: hard handover, macro diversity handover (MDHO) and fast BS switching (FBSS) In this paper we have simulated the hard hand over mechanism of IEEE 802.16j transparent mode networks us...

Impact of Relay Stations Implementation on the Handover in WiMAX

Mobile WiMAX networks are generally based on the 802.16e standard. This version of standard supports a number of handover types and allows full mobility of users. However, the relay stations are not considered in this standard version. Relay stations are introduced in the originating 802.16j standard version. This paper deals with the impact of relay stations implementation from the handover po...

Energy-efficient network selection with mobility pattern awareness in an integrated WiMAX and WiFi network

To provide wireless Internet access, WiFi networks have been deployed in many regions such as buildings and campuses. However, WiFi networks are still insufficient to support ubiquitous wireless service due to their narrow coverage. One possibility to resolve this deficiency is to integrate WiFi networks with the wide-range WiMAX networks. Under such an integrated WiMAX and WiFi network, how to...

Optimal Placement of Transparent Relay Stations in 802.16j Mobile Multihop Relay Networks

WiMAX (IEEE 802.16) has emerged as a promising radio access technology for providing high speed broadband connectivity to subscribers over large geographic regions. New enhancements allow deployments of relay stations (RSs) that can extend the coverage of the base station (BS), increase cell capacity, or both. In this paper, we consider the placement of transparent RSs that maximize the cell ca...
