Abstract
A base station and a resource allocation method are provided. The method includes: calculating transmission rates of user equipment (UE) on unallocated resource blocks; finding consecutive resource block (RB) sets within the unallocated resource blocks according to a predetermined window size; finding minimum transmission rates of the UE among the transmission rates respectively corresponding to the consecutive RB sets; finding a largest value and a second largest value corresponding to each of the consecutive RB sets among the minimum transmission rates corresponding to the UE; calculating absolute difference values between the largest value and the second largest value corresponding to each of the consecutive RB sets; finding a maximum absolute difference value from the absolute difference values corresponding to the consecutive RB sets; and allocating the consecutive RB set corresponding to the maximum absolute difference value to the specific UE.
