%0 Journal Article %T Fairness Aware Downlink Scheduling Algorithm for Lte Networks %A Bahreyni, Mahnaz Sotoudeh %A Sattari-naeini, Vahid %J Journal of Mathematics and Computer Science %D 2014 %V 11 %N 1 %@ ISSN 2008-949X %F Bahreyni2014 %X This paper proposes a new scheduling algorithm in downlink Long Term Evolution networks which is adoptable with fast variations in channel conditions.It allocates resources in a fair manner among users so that it increases cell edge users’ performance. Besides, it makes a good trade-off between throughput and fairness. The proposed method is simulated and compared with three scheduling algorithms available for Long Term Evolution. The results showgood degree of fairness at the cost of small decrease in amount of system throughput. %9 journal article %R 10.22436/jmcs.011.01.06 %U http://dx.doi.org/10.22436/jmcs.011.01.06 %P 53-63
