In the early 1980s evolution of wireless communication has witnessed remarkable growth in increasing data rates ever since its evolution. Long Term Evolution (LTE) is shaping as the future of next generation technology to satisfy the demand for growing data rates. An enhanced scheduling scheme is very essential in achieving an effective Quality of Service (QoS) Provisioning in LTE systems because it plays a significant role in distributing the wireless resources of the system among mobile users effectively. It also managing and guarantying the QoS requirements of the network responsibly. This research offers more flexibility in developing the network to design an appropriate scheduling algorithm. This study proposed a new dimension of packet scheduling scheme to made scheduling decisions using the channel quality conditions without ignoring the fairness criteria. Unlike the traditional schemes this optimum scheduling scheme for LTE system also supports multiple users with different QoS requirements within same class. The same QoS requirements for different users within each class are assumed in this scheme. The scheme also ensures maintaining a high QoS with a good throughput-fairness trade-off ratio.
