Beyond Proportional Fair: Designing Robust Wireless Schedulers

Tags:
mobile - wireless communications

Overview Proportional Fair (PF), a frequently used scheduling algorithm in 3G wireless networks, can unnecessarily starve "Well-behaved" users in practice. One of the main causes behind PF-induced starvation is its inability to distinguish between users who are backlogged and users who are not. This paper, describes how a simple parallel PF instance can mitigate such starvation.
