Providing QoS to Real and Interactive Data Applications in WiMax Mesh Networks

This paper consider the problem of centralized routing and scheduling for IEEE 802.16 mesh networks so as to provide Quality of Service QoS to individual real and interactive data applications. First an optimal and fair routing and scheduling decision is obtained for aggregate demands for different source-destination pairs. This paper...
