Abstract
An adaptive scheduling method, systems and apparatus for streaming data service for either single-carrier channel or multi-carrier channel are provided. This adaptive scheduler assigns data transmission using mixed round-robin and maximum CIR user selections based on a predetermined threshold relative to the target streaming data transmission rate. It can provide a very high flexibility for a streaming data service and exploits a multi-user diversity in single-carrier system and an additional frequency diversity in multi-carrier system.
