Abstract
Long-Term Evolution (LTE), an emerging and promising fourth generation mobile technology, is expected to offer ubiquitous broadband access to the mobile subscribers. In this paper, the performance of Frame Level Scheduler (FLS), Exponential (EXP) rule, Logarithmic (LOG) rule and Maximum-Largest Weighted Delay First (M-LWDF) packet scheduling algorithms has been studied in the downlink 3GPP LTE cellular network. To this aim, a single cell with interference scenario has been considered. The performance evaluation is made by varying the number of UEs ranging from 10 to 50 (Case 1) and user speed in the range of [3, 120] km/h (Case 2). Results show that while the number of UEs and user speed increases, the performance of the considered scheduling schemes degrades and in both case FLS outperforms other three schemes in terms of several performance indexes such as average throughput, packet loss ratio (PLR), packet delay and fairness index.
