Hi, aleen,

As I know, there is no mapping such as SNR range : BER in WiMax,
because
the standard use AMC. (But, there is a similar AMC table including
modulation scheme, code rate, etc)
In AMC, if we got low SNR, we use more reliable mode but having low
code rate
to achieve a reasonalbe error rate(PER 0.1 ~ 0.01%). Otherwise(good
SNR),
16QAM or 64QAM can be used to send much more in given time. In this
case, we also will get 0.1 ~ 0.01 PER. (Here, PER is PDU error rate)

See this: Jamshid Khun-Jush, et al, "Structure and Performance of the
HIPERLAN/2 Physical layer," 1999

Even though this article is related with HIPERLAN/2 PHY, but it will
give you some information about AMC, especially how AMC decide which
mode is proper according to SNR fed back from the receiver.

Regards,

DIFF

Thanks particlereddy,

I found these value but I would like to make a correspondance between SNR
and BER using curve. Is there any fixed value for BER for the SNR ? and
can I consider wimax mobile just like wimax fix as the same thing in this
issue ?

thanks,
ashlie

hi aleen,
             regarding this the best what you can do is you refer to
802.16E (mobile wimax) standard, there exists already a table of such
sort in that standard. if you dont find there, you can find it there at
(802.16-2004) standard or fixed wimax standard (802.16-2004's other
name).
Regarding BER, " there is compliance based limit that BER should be
this much "

Hi all,

I am new in WiMax and I intend to construct the table of modulation, SNR
and BER..
does anybody know how can I do it and by which equation ? I mean the table
can be like the following:

SNR  modulation type  data rate    BER
---  ---------------  --------     ----


thanks for any help,
Ashlie
