Abstract

Wireless broadcast systems provide the users with high bandwidth while 3G cellular systems provide complementary service to support personality and interactivity. In this paper, we develop a novel scheduling algorithm for the integrated Wireless Broadcast/3G system. The proposed algorithm combines Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Grey relational analysis (GRA). Simulation results are presented to demonstrate that the proposed algorithm could effectively support data dissemination with low response time, request drop rate, and the unfairness of request drop.
