Abstract: Abstract A wireless channel poses significant challenges to resource management due to multipath fading. In this chapter, we review the impact of wireless channels on the design of scheduling algorithms at the link and network layers. It has been well recognized now that significant performance gains can be obtained by designing channel aware scheduling algorithms. Various scheduling schemes catering to different Quality of Service (QoS) objectives such as maximizing throughput, minimizing delay, or minimizing energy have been proposed in the literature. Most of these algorithms can be formulated as control problems within the framework of a Constrained Markov Decision Processes. We examine some of the representative work in this area with a specific focus on centralized scheduling in a single cell scenario with a single antenna system.
