Abstract:
An OFDM based communications system is provided, in which a scheduler is configured to estimate the load of existing bearers and the load increase that will arise from a new requested bearer if that bearer is accepted. Several techniques are described for estimating these loads and their advantages and disadvantages are also discussed. Estimators are also provided that can estimate the loads from a previous estimate and current load conditions.
