Abstract
In this paper we state a general framework for radio resource allocation based on a matrix which highlights the trade-offs of complexity and efficiency. This framework is outlined for the systematic definition of scheduling algorithms that are jointly adaptive to traffic and to transmission quality in order to improve the radio resource utilization and the achievable throughput of cellular networks for the support of best-effort traffic. We consider the application of the matrix concept to both tithe division and code division multiple access, the latter scheme also bringing about mutual interference among competing users. Then we propose a scheduling algorithm for wireless systems, called channel adaptive open scheduling (CHAOS). The CHAOS performance in terms of throughput and delay is extensively compared with those resulting front a load adaptive channel independent scheduling (CIS). A major result of this work is the quantitative assessment of the performance advantage allowed by jointly accounting for traffic congestion and transmission quality. Moreover the main implementation issues related to the proposed algorithms are investigated. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
