A Study on the Performance of Scheduling Schemes for Broadband Wireless Access Networks

This paper presents the performance of scheduling schemes deployed in IEEE 802.16 Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) Networks working in TDD mode. Two scheduling schemes; Earliest Deadline First (EDF) and Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), are studied. Simulation models are created using OPNET Modeler tool. Performance measures and discussion are provided.
