Abstract
A method for implementing opportunistic user scheduling under long-term and short-term resource fairness constraints is presented. The method includes enabling a base station to communicate with a plurality mobile devices handled by a plurality of users within a single-cell wireless communication network, deriving a feasible region of resource block (RB) fairness vectors by enabling an opportunistic scheduler to select active users from the plurality of users at each RB, implementing an optimal user scheduling strategy to maximize system utility by optimizing, via the opportunistic scheduler, transmit power and user mode selection, wherein the optimal user scheduling strategy includes a threshold-based strategy (TBS) phase and a compensation phase, and employing a short-term resource fair scheduling strategy satisfying user resource demands over a finite window-length.
