Abstract
A system and method for scheduling variable bit rate (VBR) streams in a wireless communications system is provided. A method for broadcasting data includes receiving a plurality of broadcast data streams, assigning the broadcast data streams into a plurality of frames, each frame including data from no more than one of the broadcast data streams, re-allocating the plurality of frames, and causing the frames to be broadcast wirelessly. The re-allocating is based on a queue length associated with each of the broadcast data streams and an arrival rate for data of each of the broadcast data streams.
