Most of the mobile devices today support multimedia services as well as legacy mobile services such as voice, short message service (SMS) and multimedia messaging service (MMS). Real-time services like video streaming and multimedia gaming are given higher priority to be scheduled as compared to the non-real-time services like web browsing and sending email. However, both real-time and non-real-time services have equal demand and the urgency for the services to be scheduled cannot be neglected. This paper investigates the effect of tuning the parameter beta (β) in the Exponential Blind Equal Throughput (EXP-BET) algorithm. Different values of beta used were between 0.1 and 0.9. The simulations have been done using the LTE-Sim simulator and the performance of the proposed algorithm was observed in terms of fairness and throughput for video and best effort flows. From here, it can be concluded that when β = 0.1, the algorithm delivers best performance of fairness for both real-time and non-real-time services.References
