Abstract

Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks are expected to provide enhanced quality of service (QoS) guaranteed services and a high capacity. In this paper, we propose a novel QoS guaranteed cross-layer scheduling algorithm for LTE system. In fact the LTE scheduler is responsible for efficiently allocating the radio resources among mobile users who have different QoS demands. We focus on the resource blocks allocation and the Medium Access Control (MAC) scheduling algorithm. Our study highlights the impact of the Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration on the overall performance and the Transport Block (TB) filling during the allocation process. Performance results show that the proposed algorithm is effective in enhancing service fairness, throughput and resource optimization. Our proposal aims to find an agreement between fairness, resource availability, the requested rate and service QoS requirements.
