•RALP local scheduler – RALP uses messages exchanges and a global allocation algorithm to assign allocation units (AUs) to the various FAPs. In this article, we have proposed a local scheduling scheme that each FAP uses to assign AUs to the various user equipments (Ues). The algorithm uses the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the AUs to do the assignment.•The global allocation algorithm assigns AUs to the various FAPs. However, one FAP might require more AUs than what it has been assigned. If the neighboring FAPs are not using all their assigned AUs, then this FAP can borrow AUs from the neighboring FAPs and use it to satisfy its requirements. The borrowing algorithm describes how FAPs can borrow AUs from other FAPs.•RALP’s main disadvantage is its convergence time as the message exchange rounds depend on the neighborhood graph. In this article, we introduce the concept of clusters, where the data transfer can proceed after a certain number of message exchange rounds. |
