Abstract

This paper introduces a novel LTE uplink scheduler called Hybrid Z-Based QoS Scheduler (HZBQoS), a fully standard compliant LTE scheduler designed to operate in ONU-eNB devices of integrated LTE/TDM-EPON networks. The HZBQoS scheduler provides delay bound and guaranteed rate even when the backhaul and mobile network are heavily loaded. We evaluated the proposed scheduler under heterogeneous traffic and compared its performance to that of another LTE uplink scheduler, called Z-Based QoS Scheduler (ZBQoS), which does not take into account the variability of the backhaul link capacity. Simulation results show that HZBQoS is able to provide QoS requirements in the integrated network and outperforms the ZBQoS scheduler. (AU)
