More research work on DiffServ approach connected to the remote frameworks and versatile clients in heterogeneous environment is required keeping in mind the end goal to comprehend the advantages of the DiffServ systems. Current exploration is open with respect to the mapping of QoS classes and the configuration of complete interworking models between WiMAX and DiffServ networks. The present study demonstrated that none of the current calculations or algorithms has required ability to create an efficient, strong and fair scheduler to support all WiMAX classes.
