Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new QoS architecture for the IEEE802.16a MAC protocol and present a bandwidth allocation and admission control policy for the architecture. Our architecture provides QoS support to real-time traffic with high priority while maintaining throughput performance to an acceptable level for low priority traffic. Analytical and simulation results assure advantages of our architecture.
