An FPGA implementation of exp-bet scheduling algorithm in LTE networks / Yusmardiah Yusuf

Scheduling mechanism is the process of dynamically allocating radio resources (time and frequency) to User Equipment (UE) that transmits different flows at the same time. It is performed by the scheduling algorithm implemented in the Long Term Evolution (LTE) base station, Evolved Node B. Since the...
