Abstract: This paper deals with the resource allocation problem aimed at maximizing users’ perception of quality in wireless channels with time‐varying capacity. First of all, we model the subjective quality‐aware scheduling problem in the framework of Markovian decision processes. Then, given that the obtaining of the optimal solution of this model is unachievable, we propose a simple scheduling index rule with closed‐form expression by using a methodology based on Whittle approach. Finally, we analyze the performance of the achieved scheduling proposal in several relevant scenarios, concluding that it outperforms the most popular existing resource allocation strategies.
