Abstract

We consider in this paper an important Quality of Experience (QoE) indicator in cellular networks that is reneging of users due to impatience. We specifically consider a cell under heavy load conditions, modeled as a multiclass Processor Sharing system, and compute the reneging probability by using a fluid limit analysis. In order to enhance the user QoE, we propose a radio resource allocation control scheme that minimizes the global reneging rates. This control scheme is based on the a-fair scheduling framework and adapts the scheduler parameter depending on the traffic load. While the proposed scheme is simple, our results show that it achieves important performance gains.
