In a wireless communication system, a scheduler () determines () a first set of modulation and coding schemes (MCSs), each of which produces a maximum data rate for a first user, in accordance with available resource constraints () of the wireless communication system. The scheduler then forms, for each MCS of the first set, a second set of MCSs that produces the maximum data rate for a second user in accordance with a first residual resource () that remains when applying that MCS to the first user, thereby producing () a group of second sets of MCSs. After producing the group of second sets, the scheduler selects (), from the first set and for the first user, a first optimal MCS corresponding to one of the group of second sets that allows a highest maximum data rate for the second user.

A method () and apparatus () provide channel estimation with extended bandwidth filters. Antenna () receives a signal such as a pilot signal and detects a bandwidth associated with the pilot signal in a detector (). One of a plurality of filters (, and ) including extended bandwidth filters () and a default filter () can be selected by a selector (). If the detector detects activity associated with a wider bandwidth, the filter associated with the wider bandwidth is selected over the presently selected filter. If no activity is detected, the default filter is selected.
