B. CQI Measurements
UE makes measurement of SINR at each RB and then
convert the estimated value of SINR into a corresponding CQI
for which the received TB BLER shall not exceed 10% [3].
In this paper, we assume a multi-cell multi-user (MC-MU)
scenario where a cell is surrounded by a number of interfering
cells, say 'int . The received SINR at k th sub-carrier can be
written as
|h0,k |2

bandwidth and 1000 TTI simulation time
C. CQI Feedback
According to LTE standard, each UE measures downlink
channel quality in terms of estimated SINR. The SINR-to-CQI
mapping is realised and an appropriate CQI value is selected
as explained in section II-B. The obtained CQI values, then,
reported back to eNodeB using a CQI reporting scheme on a
particular control channel (HS-DPCCH) which may arrive at
eNode with a certain delay. The feedback delay time comprises
of processing time, transmission time, and time taken when
waiting for a scheduling slot [5]. The delay in the reception
of CQI feedback at eNodeB may cause significant performance
degradation. Depending on how quickly scheduler assigns
radio resources to the users, the delay may be about 1 to 4
TTI (each TTI is 1ms).
III. OVERVIEW OF LTE S CHEDULERS
Scheduling is a process of dynamically allocating RBs
among UE based on scheduling algorithm and the received
CQI values. The scheduler is located at an eNodeB and decides
