On Evaluating a WiMAX Access Network for Isolated Research and Data Networks Using NS-2

Overview IEEE 802.16 is yet a very recent technology and released hardware does frequently only support standards partially. The same applies to public available simulation tools, in particular for NS-2. As the latter is the de-facto standard in science and as it is use for the research in the context of the WEIRD project, the paper evaluate the of IEEE 802.16 support for NS-2. The paper present several general but also specific issues, which are important in order to carry out reliable research based on these tools. In particular, it shows in much detail where modules deviate significantly and even fail totally.
