An effective design with regards to resource allocation scheduling involves core challenges to realising a satisfactory service in an LTE system, particularly with the growing demand for network applications. The continuous rise in terms of the number of network users has resulted in impacts on the performance of networks, which also creates resource allocation issues when performing downlink scheduling in an LTE network. This research paper puts forward a review of optimisation pertaining packet scheduling performance through the LTE downlink system by introducing a new downlink-scheduling algorithm for serving video application through LTE culler networks, and also accounts for QoS needs and channel conditions. A comparison of the recommended algorithms\u2019 performances was made with regards to delay, throughput, PLR, and fairness by utilising the LTE-SIM simulator for video flow. On the basis of the outcomes obtained, the algorithms recommended in this research work considerably enhance the efficacy of video streaming compared against familiar LTE algorithms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/computers11050077","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,9]],"date-time":"2022-05-09T21:23:27Z","timestamp":1652131407000},"page":"77","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["QoS-Aware Scheduling Algorithm Enabling Video Services in LTE Networks"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3363-0469","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amal Abulgasim","family":"Masli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Science and Engineering, Management and Science University, Shah Alam 40100, Malaysia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2094-4028","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Falah Y.
