Simple model of downlink Multi-Hop channel in fixed WiMAX

Within the last two decades, communication advances have reshaped the way we live our daily lives. Wireless communications has grown from an obscure, unknown service to an ubiquitous technology that serves almost half of the people on the Earth. WiMAX is about to bring the wireless and Internet revolutions to portable devices across the globe. In its simplest form, WiMAX promises to deliver the Internet throughout the globe, connecting the “last mile“ of communications services for both developed and emerging nations. Recently, multihop cellular networks (MCNs) were proposed to preserve the advantages of traditional single-hop cellular networks with multi-hop ad hoc relaying networks, while minimizing the drawbacks that they involved. This paper present simulation outcomes of simple downlink Multi-hop channel model in fixed WiMAX for different channel conditions.
