The goal of this paper is to survey the core issues in the design of schedulers for IEEE 802.16 networks and study the various techniques available in literature. Neural Networks have been utilized by researchers over the years to solve a large set of optimization problems in the field of active queue management techniques and network communication. This paper proposes a back propagation neural based approach for scheduling of IEEE 802.16 networks. The proposed technique is novel and has sound theoretical and practical base available in other fields of communication.
