GROUP BASED PACKET SCHEDULING ALGORITHM

摘要

A system comprises a base station (102), a plurality of mobile stations (104, 106, 108), and a packet scheduling algorithm that operates on the base station. The packet scheduling algorithm groups the plurality of mobile stations (104, 106, 108) into a plurality of groups based on average throughput with the base station (102). The packet scheduling algorithm selects one of the plurality of groups for applying a scheduling metric.
