A packet scheduling method is used to schedule packets of data for transmission from a transmitter via at least one channel to a plurality of receivers, for example in a high speed downlink packet access system of a wireless communications network. Weightings are assigned to at least two different aspects of scheduling performance, for example quality of service, delay and fairness. For each individual receiver at least one combined measure of the scheduling performance in the different aspects is produced (Sl, S3) according to the assigned weightings. The respective combined measures for different receivers are employed (S2, S4) to decide the receiver(s) to which packets are to be transmitted. The weightings may be adjusted by an operator of the transmitter or be adjusted automatically based on the scheduling performance. |
