Abstract
Spectral efficiency for a 5G network, or other next generation networks, can be increased via a resource scheduler of a network node. The resource scheduler can receive a first signal from a mobile device of a wireless network. The first signal can comprise resource request data representative of a first request for a resource of the wireless network. In response to receiving the first signal, the resource scheduler can transmit a second signal to the mobile device via a network device of the wireless network, wherein the second signal can comprise buffer status request data. The scheduler can receive a third signal from the mobile device, wherein the third signal can comprise buffer status data associated with the buffer, and based on comparing bandwidth data to the buffer status data, the scheduler can assign the resource channel to the mobile device.
