PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF THE LTE AND WIMAX NETWORKS' QOS IMPROVEMENT USING THROUGHPUT PARAMETER
ABSTRACT
The worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) and long-term evolution (LTE) technologies offer a solution to the growing demand for broadband wireless applications that enabled high-rate voice services at affordable rates and with good flexibility via IP-based networks. However, the existing Throughput for both LTE and WiMAX Networks does not give the end user sufficient Quality of Service (QoS). In this paper the performance analysis for QoS improvement using throughput parameter to compare the LTE and WiMAX Networks. by developing a distributed client-server model to enhance the services provided to end-users. The model was simulated in the OPNET modeller (16.0) using multiple Access Points (APs), Base Stations (BSs), Subscriber Stations (SSs), and a selected server BSs that were selected based on the Nearest Neighbourhood Algorithm and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) techniques. According to the model's results, the LTE network's throughput significantly outperforms the WiMAX network.
