Abstract:
1. In a Software Defined Radio, a method using at least one electronic processor for resource allocation, the method comprising the steps of: defining a current time window, the current time window being subdivided into sub time intervals using the at least one electronic processor; defining a committed time window following the current time window using the at least one electronic processor, the committed time window being subdivided into sub time intervals using the at least one electronic processor, the committed time window being configured to be reschedulable, the committed time window further configured to not be able to be reallocated to a different configuration; and defining a future time window following the current time window using the at least one electronic processor, the future time window being subdivided into sub time intervals, the future time window being configured to be reschedulable and to be reallocatable to the different configuration; wherein a size of each of the windows and a size and number of the sub time intervals is based on the output of a priority arbitration function.
