Abstract-Broadcasting capabilities are one of the most promising features of upcoming LTE-Advanced networks. However, the task of scheduling broadcasting sessions is far from trivial, since it affects the available resources of several contiguous cells as well as the amount of resources that can be devoted to unicast traffic. In this paper, we present a compact, convenient model for broadcasting in LTE, as well as a set of efficient algorithms to define broadcasting areas and to actually perform content scheduling. We study the performance of our algorithms in a realistic scenario, deriving interesting insights on the possible trade-offs between effectiveness and computational efficiency.
