Abstract
Scheduling of a Temporary Block Flow in a wireless communication system, wherein a type of Temporary Block Flow supported in the wireless communication system is evaluated (310) and a set of packet data channels pre-assigned to the Temporary Block Flow is identified. For a type of Temporary Block Flow supporting dynamic scheduling, carrier scheduling is performed by identifying timeslots (320) available for packet data scheduling for the Transmission Time Interval, determining a new set of packet data channels for potential scheduling to the Temporary Block Flow in the Transmission Time Interval, wherein the new set of packet data channels may include time slots on any carrier(s), and specifying (330) the packet data channels selected for potential scheduling for the Temporary Block Flow as a subset of packet data channels within the pre-assigned packet data channels. Packet data channels are allocated (340) for the Temporary Block Flow in the Transmission Time Interval. The Temporary Block Flow is scheduled (350) to the set of packet data channels.
