Abstract

An LTE base station and a wireless resource scheduling method thereof are provided. The LTE base station receives a transmission period, a tolerable time shift, a start transmission time instant, and a required resource amount from each of a plurality of machine type communication apparatuses. The LTE base station decides a scheduling interval length according to the transmission periods, decides a first scheduling interval according to a start scheduling time instant and the scheduling interval length, and decides a first resource allocation result of the first scheduling interval for the machine type communication apparatuses according to the transmission periods, the tolerable time shifts, the start transmission time instants, and the required resource amounts. The LTE base station further decides a second resource allocation result for the first scheduling interval or a second scheduling interval for the machine type communication apparatuses according to the first resource allocation result.
