Scheduling in Wireless Cellular Networks Under Probabilistic Channel Information

Overview As wireless networks continue to grow, users will be demanding more service diversity and differential Quality-of-Service (QoS). At the packet level, differential QoS is met by means of scheduling for channel access. Several algorithms have been proposed for packet scheduling over the wireless link. The main consideration in the design of these algorithms is the characteristics of the wireless channel. Previous works used a two-state Markov model to characterize the channel and design the scheduling algorithm. This coarse approximation can lead to a considerable amount of inaccuracy in the expected user performance, i.e., when implemented under realistic channel conditions the algorithm may not perform as expected.
