To achieve this goal it was necessary to build a Framework of network management customized to the equipment used. It was applied the knowledge in signals propagation of radio frequency (RF), radio planning of cellular systems, network management and statistical analyses. In the realization of the tests for the data collect it was configured a setup of tests with one Radio Base Station (BTS) and two Remote Stations (RS) located in the Pontif?cia Universidade Cat?lica de Campinas (PUC Campinas). It was used a technology commercially named as Pre-Wireless Interoperability of Multiple Accesses (Pre-WiMAX), operating in 5.8 GHz. This technology uses Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) as multiplex technique and Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) as an access control to the media. In the development, it is presented a set of metrics related to the signals propagation by RF. The data collect was executed using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The performance evaluation has considered the measures realized and its analytic and statistic treatments for a long time. By using the results of the measures, it was built the metrics that allow the evaluation of the performance in this network type, such as: link efficiency, throughput, bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER) and packet error rate (PER), among others. The work, as a whole, presents a strategy of practical evaluation applicable to BWA networks, creating indicators for decision-makings. To validate and complement the work it was done an Quality of Service (QoS) evaluation according to the International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunication sector (ITU-T) and the International Engineering Task Force (IETF) comparing the results with and without prioritization of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service . / O objetivo deste trabalho ? apresentar m?tricas de avalia??o de desempenho em Broadband Wireless Networks (BWA). Para atingir este objetivo foi necess?ria a constru??o de um Framework de ger?ncia de redes customizado aos equipamentos utilizados. Foram aplicados os conhecimentos de propaga??o de sinais de r?dio freq??ncia (RF), planejamento de sistemas celulares, gerenciamento de redes e an?lise estat?stica. Na realiza??o dos testes para a coleta de dados foi configurado um setup de testes com uma Esta??o R?dio Base (ERB) e duas Esta??es Remotas (ER), localizadas na Pontif?cia Universidade Cat?lica de Campinas (PUC Campinas). Para a valida??o da metodologia foi utilizada uma tecnologia denominada comercialmente como Pre-Wireless Interoperability of Multiple Accesses (Pre-WiMAX), operando em 5.8 GHz. Esta tecnologia utiliza Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) como t?cnica de multiplexa??o e Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) como controle de acesso ao meio. No desenvolvimento ? apresentado um conjunto de m?tricas, referentes ? propaga??o de sinais por RF. A coleta de dados foi efetuada utilizando Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). A avalia??o de desempenho considerou as medidas realizadas e o seu tratamento anal?tico e estat?stico por longos per?odos de tempo. Com a utiliza??o dos resultados de medidas, foram constru?das as m?tricas que permitem avaliar o desempenho deste tipo de rede, tais como: efici?ncia de link, throughput, bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER), packet error rate (PER), entre outras. O trabalho como um todo apresenta uma estrat?gia de avalia??o pr?tica e aplic?vel a redes BWA, criando indicadores para tomadas de decis?o. Para validar e complementar o trabalho foi efetuada uma avalia??o de Quality of Service (QoS) segundo a International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication sector (ITU-T) e a International Engineering Task Force (IETF) com a compara??o de resultados sem e com prioriza??o do servi?o Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
