Abstract :
Long Term Evolution (LTE) packet scheduler is a key mechanism in the LTE traffic handling. It is mainly in charge of allocating physical resource blocks for the attached UEs. The main problem in LTE scheduler is to maximize the throughput while maintaining the fairness. The performance of scheduler is very critical, especially when many UEs are located at the cell edge. The new proposed scheduler can give better cell throughput performance and at the same time maintain the fairness. The findings from the performance results show an increased up to 16 percent of cell throughput compared to proportional fair (PF) scheduler. The result also shows that the fairness level is almost the same as the PF scheduler.
