This paper proposes a scheduling algorithm for efficiently processing multimedia pakcet services in OFDMA physical system of the future broadband wireless access networks. The scheduling algorithm uses wireless channel state estimation, and allocates transmission rates after deciding transmission ordering based on class and priority policy. As the result, the proposed scheduling algorithm offers maximum throughput and minimum jitter for realtime services, and fairness for non-realtime services. In simulation study, the proposed algorithm proves superior performances than traditional round robin method.

High-speed Portable Internet system provides 1-3 Mbps data transmission speed to terminals moving up to 60 km/sec. Since High-speed Portable Internet system supports services requiring different QoS, it needs an efficient scheduling method based on those different QoSs. This paper shows the performance comparisons of several different packet scheduling schemes for minimizing the mean delay over the downlink of High-speed Portable Internet system to support the packet data service. Simulation results show that proposed scheme superior to other schemes at side throughput and data loss rate.

In this paper we propose a new packet scheduling mechanism to improve TCP throughput and fairness with estimated link state information in wireless networks, in which mobile hosts are receivers. Since a priori estimated link state information is used in this proposed mechanism, the entire packet transmission time can be reduced. In other words, packets scheduling procedure is performed before packets are transmitted using estimated link state. The proposed mechanism also has an temporary FIFO queue to store packets which are on the head of queue and can not be transmitted due to bad link state. Using this temporary FIFO queue, HOL(Head of Line) problem of FIFO queue can be resolved.

In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm that assigns different number of HS-PDSCH(High Speed Primary Downlink Shared Channel) to the service user according to the received signal to interference ratio of CPICH(Common Pilot Channel) and to the traffic characteristics. Assigned channel number is determined by the signal to interference ratio level from CPICH. The highest signal to interference ratio user gets the number of channels based on the signal to interference ratio table and the remained channels are assigned to the other level users. Therefore the proposed scheme can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than existing scheduling algorithm. Simulation results show that our algorithm can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than MAX C/I algorithm and can also support the higher service throughput than proportional fairness scheme.

In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm to maximize the required total price of the systems that is applied with a different traffic pricing criterion by the mobile service operator according to different kinds of the services. The proposed algorithm adopts a particular estimation method in scheduling using the value of pricing function, which is based on the required services and the value of SIR(signal to interference ratio) that indicate the channel condition of each user. We compare Max C/I, proportional fairness and round robin algorithm with the proposed algorithm on HSDPA in order to analyze the performance. The result shows that the proposed algorithm satisfies higher throughput and provides maximum the mobile service provider's revenue.

본 논문에서는 다수의 센서 노드로 구성된 Internet of Things (IoT) 환경에서 새로운 환경에 대해 적응하는데 걸리는 시간을 줄이기 위한 새로운 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다. IoT 환경에서는 데이터 수집 및 전송 패턴이 사전에 정의되어 있지 않기 때문에 기존 정적인 Packet scheduling 기법으로는 한계가 있다. Q-learning은 네트워크 환경에 대한 사전지식 없이도 반복적 학습을 통해 Scheduling policy를 확립할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 Q-learning 스케줄링 기법을 기반으로 각 큐의 패킷 도착률에 대한 bound 값을 이용해 Q-table과 Reward table을 초기화 하는 새로운 Q-learning 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과 기존 기법에 비해 변화하는 패킷 도착률 및 서비스 요구조건에 적응하는데 걸리는 시간이 감소하였다.

Due to multiple hops, mobility and time-varying channel, supporting delay sensitive real-time traffic in wireless local area network-based (WLAN) mesh networks is a challenging task. In particular for real-time traffic subject to medium access control (MAC) layer control overhead, such as preamble, carrier sense waiting time and the random backoff period, the performance of real-time flows will be degraded greatly. In order to support real-time traffic, an efficient adaptive packet scheduling (APS) scheme is proposed, which aims to improve the system performance by guaranteeing inter-class, intra-class service differentiation and adaptively adjusting the packet length. APS classifies incoming packets by the IEEE 802.11e access class and then queued into a suitable buffer queue. APS employs strict priority service discipline for resource allocation among different service classes to achieve inter-class fairness. By estimating the received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) per bit and current link condition, APS is able to calculate the optimized packet length with bi-dimensional markov MAC model to improve system performance. To achieve the fairness of intra-class, APS also takes maximum tolerable packet delay, transmission requests, and average allocation transmission into consideration to allocate transmission opportunity to the corresponding traffic. Detailed simulation results and comparison with IEEE 802.11e enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) scheme show that the proposed APS scheme is able to effectively provide inter-class and intra-class differentiate services and improve QoS for real-time traffic in terms of throughput, end-to-end delay, packet loss rate and fairness.

The high-speed portable internet service will be served in Korea sooner or later. However, the scheduling method for the packets of various service classes has not been determined clearly yet. An effective packet scheduling for various service classes requiring different QoS is necessary to increase the efficiency of radio channels that are the limiting resource. This paper proposes an improved uplink scheduling method to accommodate more calls and enhance channel efficiency. Suggested scheduling method reflects different channel conditions considering terminal's location within a cell to increase the transmission rate and utility of the channels. According to our simulation results, our proposed scheduling method shows a good performance in the aspect of throughput and capacity of uplink channels.

Tree-based reliable multicast protocols provide scalability by distributing error-recovery tasks among several repair nodes. These repair nodes perform local error recovery for their receiver nodes using the data stored in their buffers. We propose a packet loss patterns adaptive feedback scheduling scheme to manage these buffers in an efficient manner. Under our scheme, receiver nodes send NAKs to repair nodes to request packet retransmissions only when the packet losses are independent events from other nodes. At dynamic and infrequent intervals, they also send ACKs to indicate which packets can be safely discarded from the repair node's buffer. Our scheme reduces delay in error recovery because the requested packets are almost always available in the repair node's buffers. It also reduces the repair node's workload because (a) each receiver node sends infrequent ACKs with non-fixed intervals and (b) their sending times are fairly distributed among all the receiver nodes.
