Group- Wise Transmission Rate Scheduling Scheme for Integrated Voice/Data Service in Burst-Switching DS/CDMA System

摘要

This letter proposes a packet length-based group-wise transmission (LGT) rate scheduling scheme for non-real time data service for the uplink of direct sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) system using the burst switching scheme to support the integrated voice/data service. The LGT scheme optimally determines two different rate groups and their optimal data rates so as to minimize the average packet transmission delay. It has shown that the packet transmission delay performance can he significantly improved over the conventional single-rate packet transmission scheme for integrated voice/data service. Furthermore, a main feature of the proposed scheme is simplicity in its implementation.
