| Summary: | In this paper we provide a performance analysis for real-time services with a limited bandwidth in a single-cell Mobile WiMAX network. We analyze the most critical performance parameters for real-time services, such as voice over IP. Since the throughput is a given constraint for a real-time service, the focus is on delay and jitter introduced by the Mobile WiMAX technology. We have used different user velocities, including nomadic users as well as mobile users. The main contribution of this paper is that we have shown that Mobile WiMAX can be efficiently used for real-time services with applied admission control and priority over non-real-time traffic, because it is adding a very small portion to the delay budget for the real-time service, as well as it keeps the jitter far below the end-to-end jitter threshold for telephony in a Mobile WiMAX network.
