We analyze a multi-user MISO system employing zero-forcing precoding and user scheduling with an adjustable amount of fairness at the transmitter. The system shows a significant gain in sum-rate from multi-user diversity, even for a small number of users. Furthermore, a large fraction of this gain is attained even if the system is constraint to be as fair as the Round-Robin scheduler. The performance of the fair scheduler shows to be unaffected by partial channel state information at the transmitter in the slow fading regime.
