ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a scheduling method and apparatus for scheduling data packets in time-shared channels, wherein a scheduling priority is determined for a user based on a ratio between a transmission parameter, e.g. throughput, offered to the user and an average preceding value (Tn) of the transmission parameter provided to the user within a predetermined time period. The determined scheduling priority is changed in dependence on a difference between the average preceding value and a minimum average value allocated to the user, e.g. by using a mapping function for generating a mapped value (Hn) replacing the average preceding value (Tn). Thereby, the minimum average value allocated to the user can be guaranteed by increasing the scheduling priority when the monitored average preceding value converges to the minimum average value.
