Abstract

In this paper, we propose a scheduling framework for heterogeneous traffic in OFDMA-based wireless systems. The proposed scheduling algorithm not only satisfies the QoS requirements of the real-time traffic but also maximizes the utility of the non real-time traffic. Step-by-step approach is used to achieve these two objectives simultaneously with low complexity and traffic class prioritization. A well-known bipartite matching algorithm and a standard gradient scheduling algorithm are adopted for the QoS scheduling of the real-time traffic and for the utility maximization scheduling of the non real-time traffic, respectively. Moreover, a noble beta deadline parameter is introduced to control the balance between the QoS provisioning and the diversity gain. Extensive simulation results in various scenarios are provided to demonstrate the good features of our scheduling framework.
