The present invention discloses a resource allocation method and apparatus, which relate to the field of communications, and are used for implementing an effective improvement of fairness among users and further implementing proper allocation of resources to the users. The method includes: updating a fairness parameter at a current moment according to a fairness parameter at a previous moment, an edge-to-average ratio at the previous moment, and a preset critical value, where the edge-to-average ratio is a ratio of an average cell edge throughput to an average system throughput, and the fairness parameter is not less than zero; obtaining, according to average user throughputs of users at the previous moment, the fairness parameter at the current moment, and channel conditions of the users at the current moment, an allocation scheme that maximizes system utility; and performing resource allocation according to the allocation scheme that maximizes the system utility, so that the edge-to-average ratio at the current moment is closer to the preset critical value when compared with the edge-to-average ratio at the previous moment. The solutions of the present invention are applicable to a system resource allocation scenario. |
