Performance evaluation of prioritized fair scheduling in HSDPA networks under urban situations

This paper presents a new prioritized scheduling called prioritized fair channel-dependent scheduling (PFCDS) in enhanced universal mobile telecommunications system (EUMTS). There are some fair and efficient scheduling algorithms deriving from round-robin (RR) scheduling and C/I scheduling to achieve the trade-off between both the two extreme methods for quality-of-service (QoS). PFCDS scheduling reaches a balance between the aims for effective...
