Probabilistic short-term delay and throughput requirements of multimedia services in high throughput wireless networks

In this paper userspsila short-term delay and throughput fundamental properties under basic opportunistic scheduling policies, required to support high throughput wireless communication systems with integrated multimedia services, are studied. Among the objectives of this work is to determine at what extent opportunistic scheduling policies can be used to support real-time services in addition to non-real time services. To achieve this, an appropriate framework for computing the corresponding properties under opportunistic scheduling policies is provided. Based on it, analytical expressions and numerical results regarding userspsila both throughput and access-time properties under basic opportunistic schedulers are provided, and the main system regulating parameters that affect the userspsila performance are identified and discussed.
