摘要：The Wi-MAX is an acronym for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwaves Access is an efficient andemerging wireless communication scheme that can offer broadband access with significant coverage. As a lucrativesolution, multihop communication is becoming more and more important to WiMAX systems. The 4G Revolution hasbegun with various benefits in wireless technology. Mobile WiMAX is asserted to have the huge potential of allwireless access technologies already in the markets with regard to network capacity, range, and quality of service andmobility support. Mobile WiMAX has also accepted MIMO as a fundamental factor for enhancing capacity and datapropagation consistency. This paper provides a brief overview of mobile WiMAX, its features and challenges on thewireless local and Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) standards IEEE 802.16 and IEEE 802.16e. With thedevelopment and advancement of Internet, the demand of Wideband High data rate communication services isincreasing. This triggered the demand of WiMAX as it supports high data rate and high capacity in mobile Broadbandwireless access (BWA). IEEE 802.16e (mobile WiMAX) is better than IEEE 802.16d (fixed WiMAX) as it gives fullmobility at vehicular speeds and better performance.
