Abstract

In this paper, we consider maximum rate opportunistic scheduling from a single wireless base station with a single antenna to multiple mobile users, each equipped with a single antenna. We show that a finite-state Markovian model can capture the dynamics of a single user's service, namely peruser service. We consider a saturated scenario, where the base station always has buffered data for transmission.
