ABSTRACT:
A method for assigning physical resource blocks (PRBs) is described. A first PRB is assigned to a first device from a plurality of devices. The first device maximizes a proportional fair algorithm on the first PRB. A second PRB is assigned to a second device from the plurality of devices. The second device maximizes a proportional fair algorithm on the second PRB. A determination is made whether a higher throughput would occur if the first PRB is assigned to the second device and the second PRB is assigned to the first device. The assignment of the first PRB is exchanged with the assignment of the second PRB if a higher throughput would occur.
