Scheduling algorithms for a mixture of real-time and non-real-time data in HDR

TLDR
The main conclusion is that intelligent scheduling algorithms in conjunction with token based rate control provide an efficient framework for supporting a mixture of real-time and non-real-time data applications in a single carrier.
Abstract
High Data Rate (HDR) technology has recently been proposed as an overlay to CDMA as a means of providing packet data service to mobile users. In this paper, we study various scheduling algorithms for a mixture of real-time and non-real-time data over HDR/CDMA and compare their performance. We study the performance with respect to packet delays and also average throughput, where we use a token based mechanism to give minimum throughput guarantees. We find that a rule which we call the exponential rule performs well with regard to both these criteria. (In a companion paper, we show that this rule is throughput-optimal, i.e., it makes the queues stable if it is feasible to do so with any other scheduling rule). Our main conclusion is that intelligent scheduling algorithms in conjunction with token based rate control provide an efficient framework for supporting a mixture of real-time and non-real-time data applications in a single carrier.

Opportunistic beamforming using dumb antennas

TL;DR: This work shows that true beamforming gains can be achieved when there are sufficient users, even though very limited channel feedback is needed, and proposes the use of multiple transmit antennas to induce large and fast channel fluctuations so that multiuser diversity can still be exploited.

User-level performance of channel-aware scheduling algorithms in wireless data networks

TL;DR: In this article, the performance at the flow level in a dynamic setting with random finite-size service demands is evaluated by means of a multiclass Processor-Sharing model where the total service rate varies with the total number of users and the model provides explicit formulas for the distribution of the number of active users of the various classes, the mean response times, the blocking probabilities, and the throughput.

On Positive Harris Recurrence of Multiclass Queueing Networks: A Unified Approach Via Fluid Limit Models

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a queueing network is positive Harris recurrent if the corresponding fluid limit model eventually reaches zero and stays there regardless of the initial system configuration, and that single class networks, multiclass feedforward networks and first-buffer-first-served preemptive resume discipline in a reentrant line are positive Harris-rewarded under the usual traffic condition.
