The objective of this thesis to implement and simulate the IEEE 802.16 OFDM

physical layer using Matlab in order to have better understanding of the standard and the system performance. This involves studying, through simulation, the various PHY

modulation, coding schemes and interleaving in the form of biterrorrate

(BER) and

blockerrorrate

(BLER) performance under reference channel models.-The objective of this thesis is to implement and simulate the IEEE 802.16 OFDM
