APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ALLOCATING RESOURCES TO NODES IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING AN UPDATE OF ITERATION RESOURCE WEIGHTS

摘要

An apparatus for allocating resources to nodes in a communication system comprises an iteration controller (10) for performing an iterative processing, the iteration controller being configured for using (11) iteration resource weights to obtain a resources allocation result for an iteration step, and for updating (12) the iteration resource weights to obtain updated iteration resource weights for a further iteration step using a weighted combination of the resources allocation results for the iteration step and for at least one earlier iteration step.
