Abstract

The disclosed technology is directed towards dynamic spread spectrum (DSS) deployments, in which two cells such as an LTE cell and a new radio (NR) cell share available physical resource blocks during a given transmission time interval. The LTE cell and NR cell determine priority values for their user equipments to be scheduled, and both cells provide requested scheduling information including the priority values and requested resource blocks for user equipments in the upcoming transmission time interval. Based on the priority values, a real-time joint scheduler processes the combined scheduling information from both cells to determine how many physical resource blocks of the total available to allocate to the LTE cell and how many to allocate to the NR cell for the next transmission time interval. To avoid collisions, the LTE cell and NR cell modify their respective UE schedules based on their respective number of allocated physical resource blocks.
