Systems and methods for downlink scheduling in wireless communications systems are described. In some embodiments, a method includes: applying channel prediction at a transmitter for transmitting information to one or more mobile devices; predicting channel state information for a channel over which the information is transmitted, the channel state information being based, at least, on the channel prediction; determining a precoding matrix to apply to the information, the determining the precoding matrix being based, at least, on predicted channel state information; and scheduling transmission of the information to the one or more mobile devices based, at least, on an asymptotic ergodic rate for the one or more mobile devices. The asymptotic ergodic rate can be based on large-scale channel behavior and a maximum Doppler shift between the mobile devices.

A method for resource allocation for use in a wireless communication system including at least one first femtocell and one neighboring second femtocell is provided. At least one first mobile communications device camps on the first femtocell. The method includes the steps of determining a first group corresponding to the first femtocell and the second group corresponding to the second femtocell according to at least one signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) of the first and second femtocells measured by the first mobile communications device and a threshold, wherein the first mobile communications device is included in the first group and the second group simultaneously, and the first and second groups forms an allocation group when the measured SIR of the first and second femtocells is less than the threshold, and sequentially performing a resource-allocation procedure on each group of the allocation group according to a specific allocation order.

The disclosed subject matter relates to dynamic resource management for wireless network components with a wireless communications environment. Personal base stations can be deployed in a substantially uncoordinated manner resulting in conflicts among wireless radio resources. Dynamically assigning subchannel and dynamically allocating power for subchannels can reduce these conflicts. Dynamic resource management can employ combinatorial auction schema such that assignment of subchannels can be considerate of selecting a power level for performance and to minimize overlapping subchannel interference. In an aspect, several methods can be employed to reduce the computational complexity of the general integer programming problem presented. These several methods can include a Combinatorial Auction with Greedy Algorithm scheme, a Random Equal Subchannel Partition scheme, a Local Combinatorial Auction scheme, and a Neighbors' Poor Channels scheme.
