DL Scheduler In LTE

The DL scheduler is spit into 3 functional parts:

1.The

Static

Scheduler:

Which assigns a fixed amount of Transport Blocks as well as PDCCH and PDSCH resources for the BCCH
over the DL-SCH Transport Channel.Those resources are permanently allocated.
2.The

Semi-static

Scheduler:

Which assigns Transport Blocks as well as PDCCH and PDSCH resources for PCCH and CCCH over the
PCH and DL PDSCH SCH Transport Channels. The semi-static scheduler also assigns a regular set of
Transport Blocks for all established VoIP bearers.
3.The

Dynamic

Scheduler:

Which assigns Transport Blocks as well as PDCCH and PDSCH resources for DCCH & DTCH over the DLSCH

Transport

Channels.

The dynamic scheduler is also in charge of sending the MAC Control Timing Advance control messages in
order to keep the UE in the connected mode, synchronized with the network
The LTE DL scheduler is composed of 2 main algorithms:
A pre-booking stage which reserve resources over the PDSCH for the static and semistatic schedulers. A
scheduling stage which assign the resources over the PDSCH for effective traffic.
