This time constant plays a major role in how long a UE has to wait maximally before it might be scheduled. For instance, if a UE had a lot of traffic, the average traffic will be high, pushing the PF coefficient down. If another UE with no traffic in the past becomes active with heavy traffic, the first UE might not be scheduled for an extended period of time. In the AW2S-Amarisoft UE CI test pipeline, we sometimes see that the maximum number of RLC retransmissions was reached. While this might not be the (only) cause, scheduling a UE more often might prevent such situations, and we saw an improved stability.
