The effect of spatial diversity on the throughput and reliability of wireless networks is
examined. Spatial diversity is realized through multiple independently fading …

We consider wireless downlink data channels where the transmission power of each base
station is time-shared between a dynamic number of active users as in CDMA/HDR systems …

It was previously shown (under simplifying assumptions) that the proportional fair algorithm
gives equal power and time to users who only differ in their distance from the BS, their fading …

In this paper, we study minimal power transmission of bursty sources over wireless channels
with constraints on mean queuing delay. The power minimizing schedulers adapt power and …

Recent years have seen the growing popularity of multi-rate wireless network devices (eg,
802.11 a cards) that can exploit variations in channel conditions and improve overall …

This innovative book sets forth two promising wireless approaches that support high-quality,
high-speed data and multimedia service-multiple antenna technologies and cross layer …

As third-generation (3G) wireless networks with high data rate get widely deployed,
optimizing the transmission control protocol (TCP) performance over these networks would …

The problem of scheduling delay insensitive data over a direct sequence code-division
multiple-access downlink fading channel is considered. This work considers the case where …

We study the basic problem of preemptive scheduling of an online stream of jobs on a single
processor. The i th job arrives at time r (i) and has processing time p (i) that is known at the …

Scheduling has been extensively studied in various disciplines in operations research and
wireline networking. However, the unique characteristics of wireless communication systems …
