In this letter, we prove that for fading multiuser orthogonal frequency division multiplexing networks, a simple fixed rate scheduling scheme with only 1bit channel state information feedback is capable of achieving the optimal performance in the wideband limit. This result indicates that the complexities of both the feedback and channel coding schemes can be reduced with nearly no system performance penalty in wideband wireless communication environments.
