Abstract

Simple wireless scheduling techniques, such as maximum carrier-to-interference ratio (Max. C/I) or round robin (RR), fail to take into account all aspects of quality of service (QoS) provisioning. The fundamentals of evolutionary computation (genetic algorithms) and conventional wireless scheduling techniques are combined and the weaknesses of the existing known techniques are exploited to propose a novel hybrid genetic packet scheduler (HGPS) for high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA). The proposed HGPS outperforms the Max. C/I packet scheduler in terms of total delivered throughput within low delay thresholds.
