Worldwide interoperability for micro wave access (WiMAX) is a wireless network that have attracted the attention of researchers on the area of power savings, because of the increase in multimedia applications that consumes more battery power of Mobile stations (MS). MS experience an increase in their daily operations with limited power enforced on the MS; hence the need to optimally increase efficiency; due to the excessive power consumption experienced by MS; which significantly affects the performance of MS since, MS are battery powered with a super impose life, improving the life time of MS is imperative. Thus, this has led to numerous research works on energy-savings. Hence, we have presented a survey on the recent and past energy-saving schemes, aimed at understanding some of the most relevant sources of inefficiency in energy savings and how some of these challenges are solved by the existing solutions. We further presented a comparative analysis on these schemes with the aim of identifying current challenges that are yet to be addressed by the research community as well as presents future directions towards efficient energy savings in WiMAX networks.
