Abstract:
Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is a broadband wireless technology based on IEEE 802.16-2004 and IEEE 802.16e-2005. This type of networks supports multiservice traffic (voice, video and Ftp) and guarantees the Quality of Service(QoS). This thesis evaluate the performance analysis of two routing protocols (AODV and OLSR) in WiMAX technology using voice as traffic. The background of WiMAX and routing protocol are introduced and analyzed. The performance of routing protocols is measured and compared according to the following criteria: delay, jitter, and throughput. Results for different scenarios–varied according to the number of users- are simulated using OPNET network simulator.
