Resource Allocation in Mobile WiMAX Network: An Optimal Approach

Abstract: In the last few years there has been significant growth in the area of wireless communication. IEEE 802.16/WiMAX is the network which is designed for providing high speed wide area broadband wireless access; WiMAX is an emerging wireless technology for creating multi-hop Mesh network. Future generation networks will be characterized by variable and high data rates, Quality of Services (QoS), seamless mobility both within a network and between networks of different technologies and service providers. A technology is developed to accomplish these necessities is regular by IEEE, is 802.16, also called as WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access). This architecture aims to apply Long range connectivity, High data rates, High security, Low power utilization and Excellent Quality of Services and squat deployment costs to a wireless access technology on a metropolitan level. In this paper we have observed the performance analysis of location based resource allocation for WiMAX and WLAN-WiMAX client and in second phase we observed the rate-adaptive algorithms. We know that base station (BS) is observed the ranging first for all subscribers then established the link between them and in final phase they will allocate the resource with Subcarriers allocation according to the demand (UL) i.e. video, voice and data application. We propose linear approach, Active-Set optimization and Genetic Algorithm for Resource Allocation in downlink Mobile WiMAX networks. Purpose of proposed algorithms is to optimize total throughput. Simulation results show that Genetic Algorithm and Active-Set algorithm performs better than previous methods in terms of higher capacities but GA have high complexity then active set.
