Abstract

LTE is the evolution of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS). A scheduler assigns the shared resources (time and frequency) among users terminals. I have examined the impact of different scheduling schemes on the throughput and I also have investigated the fairness of each scheduling scheme. The main contribution of this thesis is to propose a new scheduling algorithm that can be comprise between the throughput and the fairness.
