Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and system for determining, for a transmission time interval (TTI), an amount of resource units to be allocated to each cell served by at least one module in a wireless communication network are disclosed. The allocation is based on an estimated resource consumption of each cell, a resource limit of each cell and resource limits of the at least one module. For each TTI, a prioritized list of queues having information to be transmitted is determined, where each queue belongs to a cell of the plurality of cells. Also, for each TTI, in an order of priority of the queues, a number of resource units to be consumed by a queue is determined based at least in part on a number of resource units required to empty the queue.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of pre-scheduling pooling of resource units of at least one module in a node of a wireless communication network, the at least one module serving a plurality of cells, the method comprising: determining, for a transmission time interval, a total number of resource units available for allocation to the plurality of cells by the at least one module; estimating a number of resource units to be consumed by each of the plurality of cells based at least…
