Abstract

In 3G wireless data networks, network operators would like to balance system throughput while serving users fairly. This is achieved through the use of fair scheduling. However, this approach provides non-Pareto optimal bandwidth allocation when considering a network as a whole. In this paper an optimal offline algorithm that is based on the decomposition result for a double stochastic matrix by Birkhoff and von Neumann is proposed. A utility max-min fairness is suggested for the derivation of a double stochastic matrix. Using a numerical experiment, new approach improves the fairness objective and is close to the optimal solution.
