Problem Definition

• Single carrier frequency division multiple access as the uplink access scheme– Proportional fair scheduling metric (PF)

• Fairness & overall cell throughput

– Allocating the resource blocks (RBs)• contiguity paradigm

Input of the scheduler is the PF matrix M

Matrix M

Heuristic Algorithms• FME: First Maximum Expansion• RME: Recursive Maximum Expansion• MADE: Minimum Area-Difference to the Envelope

Simulations & Conclusions

• Contiguous allocation of the RBs for each user

• Considering only frequency-domain channel-aware packet scheduling
