Abstract

This paper proposes a new scheduling scheme which based on user perception, Channel- and QoS-Aware (known as E-MQS scheduler) for real-time traffics in LTE downlink direction. The proposed scheduling scheme is based on the extension of the E-model and the consideration of Maximum Queue Size (MQS) as a an essential factor for the metric. The proposed scheduling scheme is evaluated in LTE heterogeneous traffic with mobility. The simulation results show that the proposed scheduler not only satisfies QoS requirements of real-time services but also outperforms the Frame Level Scheduler (FLS), Modified Largest Weighted Delay First (M-LWDF) and Exponential/Proportional Fair (EXP/PF) schedulers in terms of delay, cell throughput, Fairness Index (FI) and Spectral Efficiency (SE), especially for Video flow. The proposed scheduler also significantly improves the Packet Loss Rate (PLR) in comparison with the M-LWDF and EXP/PF schedulers for both VoIP and Video flows.
