Abstract

This paper presents the necessity of application-based scheduling to maintain QoS requirements of all active applications in an indoor femtocell. A novel scheduler is proposed which takes into account the quality of service (QoS) requirements of each active application as well as whether their sustainability is at risk at a given time. The scheduler aims to maintain an efficient use of the wireless radio resources and strives to achieve a user and application specific notion of fairness of service reception. Unlike current solutions, the scheduler differentiates between not only different users but also between applications of each user, and schedules data transmission amongst these applications so that QoS requirements for all applications are satisfied.
