Different Approximation Algorithms for Channel Scheduling in Wireless Networks

Algorithm 5

Greedy-signal-channel with variate interference radii ().
 Input: a weighted graph , and a distance parameter for the largest distance of interference.
 Output:
(1) Sort all edges by the increasing order of their sum of radii and put those edges in a list .
(2) Let ;
(3) Repeat;
(4) Select an edge with the least sum of radii from ;
(5) If there is a channel for not being interfered by
(6) Then, assign the channel to and put into ;
(7) Remove from ;
(8) Until is empty;
(9) Return ;
