This paper proposes a service-aware scheduling algorithm, in which the Mean Opinion Score （MOS） is chosen as the unified metric of the Quality of Experience （QoE）. As the network needs to provide satisfactory services to all the users, the fairness of QoE should be considered. The Propor- tional Fair （PF） principle is adopted to achieve the trade-off between the network perfonmnce and us- er fairness. Then, an integer progranming problem is formed and the QoE-aware PF scheduling princi-ple is derived by solving the relaxed problem. Simu-lation results show that the proposed scheduling principle can perform better in terms of user fair-ness than the previous principle maximizing the sum of MOS. It also outperfoms the max-rain scheduling principle in terms of average MOS.展开更多

However, due to the limitation of frequency bandwidth of WLANs, it is essential that the available radio resource should be fully utilized to offer different services to multiple users. In order to maximize system throughput while still guaranteeing the fairness among users, a proportional fairness based algorithm is proposed in this work. Since most of the previous resource allocation algorithms were simply based on the channel conditions without taking into account user's demand, in this paper, we introduce the theory of fuzzy synthetic evaluation(FSE) which also allows us to consider user's demand as an important factor. As such, the fairness among users can be improved based on different users' requirements for services. In addition, a channel state information based rate adaptation scheme is also proposed. Through simulation studies, the results clearly validate that our proposed scheme shows advantages on providing user fairness while still improving the system throughput.展开更多
