Its wide deployment through the Internet has attracted great interest from researchers and industrialists. WiMAX has defined five classes of service as well as their requirements. However, the standard has not specified the different scheduling and queue management algorithms to use. In this paper, we are presenting simulations of a WiMAX network with several scenarios that we have defined under the NS simulator, involving different data flow to measure the quality of the service offered.

The All-IP concept whose aim is to migrate all traditional services to the IP technology is becoming a reality. The user is increasingly looking for a broadband wireless environment, omnipresent, and especially at low cost, that guarantees him the connectivity and the Internet access wherever he is and at any time. It has resulted into a development and a wide propagation of smart mobile terminals such as PDAs, smart phones and tablets. It is in that context that IEEE has developed a new standard, the , commonly .
