Abstract
Methods and a system are provided for enhanced long-term evolution scheduling. A ranking is constructed for one or more users scheduled on one or more resource blocks. A layer mapping is generated, using a finite modulation and coding scheme, utilizing the ranking of each of the one or more users for the one or more resource blocks. An enhanced ranking is determined, using a finite constraint on a buffer for each of the one or more users, for the one or more resource blocks utilizing the layer mapping. The enhanced ranking is deployed into a schedule for the one or more resource blocks being utilized by each of the one or more users. Bandwidth usage is optimized in the one or more resource blocks by utilizing the schedule.
