    Taking into consideration the aperture averaging, the system performance of a point-to-multipoint free space optical (FSO) system for various multiuser diversity scheduling schemes is studied over exponentiated Weibull (EW) fading channels. The selection principles of greedy scheduling (GS), selective multiuser diversity scheduling (SMDS), proportional fair scheduling (PFS) and selective multiuser diversity scheduling with exponential rule (SMDS-ER) schemes are introduced and compared on the basis of time-varying behavior of turbulence channel fading in the present system. The analytical average capacity ex-pressions for the GS and SMDS schemes are derived, respectively. Then, the relative capacity simulations for PFS and SMDS-ER schemes are also provided over EW fading channels with the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation. The results show that the GS scheme obtains the maximum average capacity at the cost of the fairness of users. The SMDS-ER receives the minimum capacity, but it guarantees the fairness of users. The SMDS and PFS schemes can get balance between capacity and fairness. This study can be used for FSO system design.
