Abstract

Adaptive packet scheduling for wireless data access systems, including channel state information based algorithms, is a quite well established topic. We develop here an original framework to define such an algorithm in a reconfigurable context, i.e. with the ability to exploit heterogeneous communication environments. The focus is to define platform independent algorithms that can be “adapted”, by a specific software, to different environments, so that the core communication functions can be defined, modified and improved once for all. The specific communication function addressed in this work is packet scheduling. For better performance the packet scheduling design exploits the cross-layering approach, i.e. information and functions from different communication layers are used. The concept is proved with reference to the UMTS and Bluetooth technologies, as representatives of a cellular system and a local access one respectively.
