Definitions
- the present invention relates to wireless communications, and in particular to scheduling data for transmission from a base station to one or more mobile terminals.
- Wireless communication networks that allocate communication resources, such as time or frequency, require a scheduler to select data to be transmitted. When multiple users are vying for these resources, the scheduler must analyze the incoming data and determine the data having the highest priority for transmission.
- Priority has traditionally been based on maximizing overall system throughput or maintaining a certain Quality of Service (QoS) level to ensure that data is transmitted in a timely fashion.
- QoS Quality of Service
- users having better channel conditions are favored over those with worse channel conditions.
- the users with the less favorable channel conditions are always given lower priority.
- those users with poor channel conditions are prone to lower QOS levels.
- trying to maintain certain QOS levels often leads to unnecessarily low system throughput.
- schedulers prioritize packets based solely on carrier-to- interference ratios (CIRs) derived from information fed back from the mobile terminals. Such schedulers maximize throughput without regard to fairness or minimum throughput requirements and typically schedule delivery for users that are closest to the base station. Schedulers attempting to provide some degree of fairness use rudimentary scheduling criteria resulting in poor system throughput. There are also many problems with existing schedulers in terms of supporting multi-media wireless-internet services. Further, most schedulers are not designed for multi-carrier operation, which makes them unsuitable for multiple earner - data and voice (MC-DV) environments.
- CIRs carrier-to- interference ratios
- the present invention provides different scheduling criteria depending on overall system performance in an effort to maintain fairness among mobile terminals and sustain a required QoS level.
- the invention is particularly effective for multi-carrier systems, wherein scheduling must also take into consideration the carrier used to transmit the scheduled data.
- the present invention determines the spread of throughput rates for all mobile terminals being served by a given base station and bases the scheduling criteria thereon.
- a standard deviation calculation is used to measure the throughput spread.
- the standard deviation of throughput associated with a collective group of mobile terminals is indicative of the differences between the lowest and highest throughputs with respect to the average throughput for the collective group of mobile terminals.
- the throughput associated with a high standard deviation indicates that certain mobile terminals are experiencing very low throughput while others are experiencing relatively high throughput, and the potential for unfair scheduling is increased.
- the scheduling criterion for higher standard deviation in cumulative throughput attempts is to inject higher priority on lower throughput mobile terminals.
- the scheduling criteria should emphasize overall throughput and thus select scheduling for mobile terminals where throughput can be maximized, instead of ensuring that mobile terminals with lower throughput are treated fairly.
- CIR scheduling When attempting to maximize throughput, maximum carrier-to- interference ratio (CIR) scheduling may be used wherein data is scheduled for a carrier and mobile terminal combination associated with the most favorable channel conditions based on the CIR or the like.
- proportional fairness scheduling may be used instead of or in combination with the maximum CIR scheduling.
- Proportional fairness scheduling attempts to take advantage of temporal variations of the channels by scheduling transmissions to the mobile terminals using the carriers associated with the strongest signal levels.
- Figure 1 is a block representation of a wireless communication environment according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a flow diagram according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- Figures 3A through 3D illustrate four scheduling modes according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- wireless networks use access points, such as base stations 10, to facilitate communications with access terminals, such as mobile terminals 12, within a select coverage area, or cell.
- Respective groups of base stations 10 are supported by a communication network 14, which may include mobile switching centers, a public switched telephone network (PSTN), a packet-switched network, or a combination thereof.
- the communication network 14 is used to transport packets to and from the base station 10.
- the packets may be communicated in a direct packet-switched manner or on top of a circuit-switched platform.
- the manner in which the packets are communicated to the base station 10 is not critical to the invention.
- the base station 10 During forward link communications from the base station 10 to select mobile terminals 12, the base station 10 must determine the manner and order in which to transmit the data received in the packets from the communication network 14 to the mobile terminals 12. In multiple carrier systems, the base station 10 will also determine the carrier, or channel, on which to deliver the packets. Accordingly, the base station 10 will include a control system 16 having a control plane 18 controlling the flow of data through a data plane 20. For communicating with the mobile terminals 12, the data plane 20 will process packets received from the communication network 14 via a network interface 22 under the control of the control plane 18. The packets are processed into units, which are delivered to radio frequency (RF) transceiver circuitry 24 for transmission.
- RF radio frequency
- packet refers to packetized data, which is received by the base station 10 from the communication network 14.
- unit refers to packetized data that is transmitted from the base station 10 to the mobile terminals 12.
- a unit may include all or any part of one or more packets. Although units may directly correspond to packets, units are preferably a given size wherein packets may vary in size from one packet to another. The units may include voice, video, or traditional data.
- the forward link from the base station 10 to the mobile terminal 12 will include one or more channels, which are divided into defined time slots.
- the RF transceiver circuitry 24 is configured to modulate a given unit as dictated by the control plane 18 and transmit the modulated unit via one or more antennas 26 during a single time slot.
- the RF transceiver circuitry 24 is preferably configured to implement different modulation and coding techniques based on channel conditions, the capabilities of the mobile terminals 12, or required transmission standards. As noted, the RF transceiver circuitry 24 may transmit units over a number of distinct carriers. Those skilled in the art will recognize the various possible modulation techniques and that multiple units may be transmitted in a given time slot.
- the control plane 18 includes a scheduler 28, which is configured to prioritize and control the delivery order of units to the mobile terminals 12 based on parameters detailed further below.
- packets for any number of mobile terminals 12 are received and stored in a buffer 30 associated with the data plane 20.
- the buffer 30 is segregated into multiple queues, each associated with a given mobile terminal 12. If the packets do not directly correspond to units, the incoming packets are processed into the desired units.
- the units are stored in the respective queues in the order in which they are received. Preferably, the queues use a first-in-first-out (FIFO) configuration.
- FIFO first-in-first-out
- the present invention provides different scheduling criteria depending on overall system performance in an effort to maintain fairness among mobile terminals 12 and sustain a required QoS level.
- the invention is particularly effective for multi-carrier systems, wherein scheduling must also take into consideration the carrier used to transmit the scheduled data.
- the present invention determines the spread of throughput rates for all mobile terminals 12 being served by a given base station 10 and bases the scheduling criteria thereon.
- a standard deviation calculation is used to measure the throughput spread.
- the standard deviation of throughput associated with the collective group of mobile terminals 12 is indicative of the differences between the lowest and highest throughputs with respect to the average throughput for the collective group of mobile terminals 12.
- the scheduling criteria for higher standard deviation in cumulative throughput attempts is to inject higher priority on lower throughput mobile terminals 12.
- the scheduling criteria should emphasize overall throughput and thus select scheduling for mobile terminals 12 where throughput can be maximized, instead of ensuring that mobile terminals 12 with lower throughput are treated fairly.
- a channel condition represents the quality of the transmission channel from the base station 10 to the mobile terminals 12 for each of the multiple carriers.
- the throughput rates may be a function of actual or estimated data throughput rates, channel conditions, or a combination thereof.
- Channel conditions may vary continuously and may be determined using any number of techniques. For example, carrier-to-interference ratios (CIR), which represent a measure of carrier signal power to interference power, may be fed back to the base station 10 from the mobile terminals 12.
- CIR carrier-to-interference ratios
- the scheduler 28 will preferably continuously track channel conditions for each carrier and mobile terminal 12. The scheduler 28 will also monitor the throughput for each mobile terminal 12 (step 104).
- ⁇ th ( ⁇ ) of cumulated throughput for all mobile terminals 12 in time slot n .
- the standard deviation for cumulative throughput, ⁇ th ( ⁇ ) is defined as follows:
- ⁇ ( ⁇ ) is the mean of cumulated throughput for time slot n , as given by
- each mobile terminal 12 monitors the channel conditions of N separate carriers using N common pilot signals and determines N separated CIRs.
- the CIRs are then sent to the base station 10.
- the base station 10 will create a CIR matrix, r(n) (step 106), which can be expressed as
- the CIR matrix can be mapped into a transmission rate matrix, R , which is indicative of the potential throughput for each mobile terminal 12 and each carrier (step 108).
- the transmission rate matrix, R can be expressed as
- the scheduler 28 can estimate the cumulated user throughput in the next time slot n (step 110), as given by
- step 112 will then schedule units for transmission for select mobile terminals 12 and on select carriers using scheduling criteria selected based on the standard deviation of
- maximum CIR scheduling indicates the scheduler will systematically select the carrier and mobile terminal 12 having the greatest CIR until each available carrier has a unit scheduled for transmission for the given time slot n.
- the exemplary scheduling criteria follows in association with Figures 3A-3D:
- ⁇ [ max) is the threshold of standard deviation of throughput, whereby streaming service performance can be easily controlled under a desired level
- the threshold of standard deviation of throughput ⁇ max) is determined based on both ⁇ L and ⁇ H , and represented by: f ⁇ H - ⁇ L
- the present invention looks at the spread for throughput across multiple users to determine a scheduling criteria. As the spread decreases, the amount of CIR scheduling increases. As the spread increases, lower throughput mobile terminals are prioritized during scheduling.
- standard deviation to provide a statistical analysis for the relative spread for the throughput of each mobile terminal 12
- those skilled in the art will recognize other techniques and algorithms to use for analyzing the relative spread for throughput and selecting scheduling criteria based thereon.
- proportional fairness scheduling attempts to take advantage of temporal variations of the channels by scheduling transmissions to the mobile terminals 12 using the carriers associated with the strongest signal levels. For example, the mobile terminals 12 may request certain data rates based on signal levels or channel quality, and the base station 10 will send the data to the mobile terminal 12 based on the requested data rate.
- proportional fairness scheduling is required, data is scheduled for transmission to the mobile terminals 12 based on a ratio of the requested data rate to an average throughput rate over a given window. The latter favors those mobile terminals with better capability to transmit larger volumes of data.
