Abstract
To provide quality-of-service (QoS) differentiation and guarantee user fairness, efficient power and spectrum utilization for the downlink multiuser orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MU-OFDM) systems, a novel QoS guaranteed cross-layer (QGCL) scheduling scheme is proposed in this paper. The scheme formulates the scheduling into an optimization problem of overall system utility under the system constraints. Moreover, we propose a simple and efficient binary constrained particle swarm optimization (PSO) to solve the scheduling more effectively. Comparing with the classical methods, simulation results show that the proposed QGCL scheduling scheme can significantly maximize the system throughput given that the fulfillment of the QoS requirements as well as the fairness is guaranteed.
