Abstract
This letter studies the problem of user association and scheduling in heterogeneous cellular networks under deadline constraints. The objective is to maximize the number of associated users while respecting these constraints. First, we discuss a special case of the problem and present an optimal algorithm. Second, we show that the problem is NP-hard in general and present a constant-factor approximation algorithm to solve it. Finally, we show via simulations that the proposed algorithm performs close-to-optimal and surpasses benchmark heuristic algorithms.
