A scheduler in a base station determines or estimates a cumulative throughput based on the scheduling criteria used by the base station. Based on the cumulative throughput for each slot, the mobile terminals are divided into one of two groups. The first group is provided for mobile terminals having a lower throughput, while the remaining mobile terminals are placed in a second group associated with higher throughput. The mobile terminal in the first group having the lowest throughput has data scheduled for transmission on the next slot over the best available carrier. The remaining mobile terminals in the first group are iteratively scheduled for transmission on the best remaining carriers, until no mobile terminals remain. Once scheduling for the first group is complete, scheduling for the second group can take place. Preferably, scheduling for the second group is performed to maximize throughput on the remaining carrier or carriers.
