Certain embodiments of the present disclosure proposes a flexible method for scheduling of an uplink transmission simultaneously considering all active connections of a mobile station. A decision on scheduling priority can be made based on a metric that comprises QoS parameters and current traffic measurements. The weight factors may be applied for every QoS parameter per schedule type providing flexibility of the scheduling algorithm. The proposed scheduling algorithm may be applied to satisfy different QoS requirements for each service provider and application by changing weight factors if required.
