Mobile WiMAX/IEEE 802.16e standard is designed to support for both stationary and mobile transmission. With excess to supports high data rate and covering large areas it becomes the demands for consumers. Mobile WiMAX systems must have an efficient handover scheme in order to provide a good service for mobile subscriber. On the other hand to succeed an efficient handover the process must in minimum amount of packet loss. The probability of this packet loss might lead link handover start delay and degrade the data transferred from one BS to another BS. hi this this paper the performance of handover in term of delay and throughput has been analyzed using the streaming video application with speed of pedestrian. OPNET Modeler 14.5 software was used as a tool for simulation.
