Summary:
We developed a cross layer design which combines retransmission diversity and multi-user diversity for wireless communication. To this end, a joint design of adaptive modulation and coding with retransmission-based automatic repeat request protocol is outlined. This design is applied to devise multi-user scheduling schemes, which can optimally capture the available multi-user and retransmission diversities. In addition, the proposed on-line scheduling algorithms can operate even when the underl ying fading channel distribution is unknown, while asymptotically converging to the offline benchmark with guarantees on prescribed fairness and rate requirements. Numerical results are provided to verify the merits of our novel schemes for multi-user transmissions over Nakagami block fading channels.
