Decentralized and fair rate control in a multisector CDMA system

As the demand for wireless broadband data services grows, it becomes increasingly important to address the issue of optimal resource allocation. Specifically, such allocation should address not only quality of service (QOS) requirements, but continually changing resource demands. This paper examines such optimal resource allocation through nonuniform rate assignment in a CDMA system, using a proportional fair scheme. We also examine distributed algorithms for such a rate assignment, and their performance in dynamic systems.
