Detailed explanation-1: -The primary task of the WiMAX MAC layer is to provide an interface between the higher transport layers and the physical layer. The MAC layer takes packets from the upper layer, these packets are called MAC service data units (MSDUs) and organizes them into MAC protocol data units (MPDUs) for transmission over the air.
Detailed explanation-2: -MAC Layer: This layer provides and interface between convergence layer and physical layer of WiMax protocol stack.
Detailed explanation-3: -WiMax developed to provide wireless broadband access to buildings, either in competition to existing wired networks or alone in currently unserved rural or thinly populated areas. It can also be used to connect WLAN hotspots to the Internet. WiMAX is also intended to provide broadband connectivity to mobile devices.
Detailed explanation-4: -The WiMAX system has four key layers; MAC convergence, MAC layer, MAC privacy and the physical layer.
