Abstract	IEEE 802.16 standard defines the specifications for emerging WiMAX networks. It did not however define the scheduling algorithms that determine the uplink and downlink bandwidth allocation. This paper proposes a preemptive deficit fair priority queue (PDFPQ) scheduling architecture for QoS management for the IEEE 802.16 standard. The proposed scheduling architecture is an extension of the DFPQ scheduling technique found in the literature. It enhances the QoS requirements of real time polling service (rtPS) flow class, and improves its delay and throughput. Compared to DFPQ, preliminary results show that a significant rtPS delay reduction and throughput increase can be realized with our new scheduling technique.
