Abstract
WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a wireless communications standard designed to provide 30 to 40 megabit-per-second data rates. WiMAX is considered as an appropriate technology to provide the Last Mile Access to ICTs Infrastructure and Services in Rural Areas. Compared with other wired solution such as ADSL, or any other wireless or satellite system, WiMAX based access networks will enable operators and service providers to costeffectively reach millions of new potential customers providing them with broadband ICTs access. In this thesis we will focus on the deployment of the last mile access of the WiMAX network model using NS3 and observe the overall performance of traffic handling between fixed and mobile nodes and the base stations for a standard rural area of Bangladesh.
