A wireless communication system is disclosed where a hub base station has an associated scheduler. Remotely located subscriber stations such as customer premises equipment devices each have their own associated scheduler in the vicinity of each device. The hub base station scheduler is responsible for scheduling communications in a first direction between the hub base station and the subscriber stations. Each subscriber station scheduler is responsible for scheduling communications in a second, opposite direction between the corresponding subscriber station and the hub base station. In one example, the schedulers associated with the subscriber stations are responsible for scheduling all backhaul or uplink communications from the subscriber station to the base station. A disclosed example is useful for WiMax communications.
