Figure 49 Sector WiMAX Settings Configuration
The Sector WIMAX Settings parameters that the User can configure are defined below:
• Maximum Uplink Rate. This parameter provides the means to globally fix the maximum
modulation rate in the Uplink direction (defined as Subscriber to Base Station). If the User
wants to dynamically adapt the rate to the maximum, then the default value of QAM64_5/6
can be left unchanged. Refer to Appendix A for an explanation of how the maximum
modulation rate, defined as MCS Rate, effectively caps the system data throughput. If the User
wants to physically cap the rate and hence cap the throughput, they are free to select from
the following MCS rates:
o QAM64_5/6
o QAM64_3/4
o QAM64_2/3
o QAM64_1/2
o QAM16_3/4
o QAM16_1/2
o QPSK_3/4
o QPSK_1/2
