Abstract

In this paper, an optimal downlink resource management scheme for heterogeneous packet transmission in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless communication systems is proposed. By making use of the channel impulse response and the properties of the OFDM physical layer, a resource management scheme is developed by integrating power distribution, subcarrier allocation, and the generalized processor sharing (GPS) scheduling. The scheme can: 1) maximize system throughput; 2) guarantee the required signal-to-noise ratio for heterogeneous traffic; 3) provide fairness to all the traffic admitted in the system; and 4) satisfy the total transmission power constraint. For practical implementation, a simplified power and subcarrier allocation algorithm, a robust H/sub /spl infin// channel estimation algorithm, and a truncated GPS (TGPS) scheduling scheme are introduced. Simulation results show that the proposed resource management scheme exhibits good throughput performance.
