Abstract
Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the new generation wireless networks that support all IP transmission for multimedia services. One of the major challenges in LTE network is to provide the packet scheduling scheme that can supports the Quality-of-Service (QoS) requirements of multimedia services. In this paper, a Quality-of-Service (QoS) aware packet scheduler for Real Time (RT) downlink communication in LTE is proposed. A Resource Block (RB) preserver scheduling algorithm that has two layers is developed. The upper layer exploits the LTE frame features of aggregating multiple numbers of sub-frames. The lower layer adopts the concept of Proportional Fair (PF) algorithm to schedule the Non Real Time (NRT) flows. While for the real time flows, the Exponential/Earliest Deadline (EXP/ED) algorithm is utilized. Our simulation results show the proposed Resource Block Preserver (RBP) algorithm outperforms both the Exponential/Proportional Fair (EXP/PF) and Maximum-Largest Weighted Delay First (M-LWDF) scheduling algorithms in terms of lower Packet Loss Ratio (PLR) among users in the downlink 3GPP LTE system supports VoIP services.
