  Abstract

In this paper, we provide opportunistic scheduling schemes for elastic services in OFDMA systems with fairness constraints for each user. We adopt the network utility maximization framework in which a utility function is defined for each user to represent its level of satisfaction to the service. Since we consider elastic services whose degree of satisfaction depends on its average data rate, we define the utility function of each user as a function of its average data rate. In addition, for fair resource allocation among users, we define fairness requirements of each user by using utility functions. We first formulate an optimization problem for each fairness requirement that aim at maximizing network utility, which is defined as the sum of utilities of users. We then develop an opportunistic scheduling scheme for each fairness requirement by solving the problem using a dual approach and a stochastic sub-gradient algorithm.
