MultiUserScheduler is an abstract base class defining the API that APs supporting at least VHT can use to determine the format of their next transmission.
VHT APs can only transmit DL MU PPDUs by using MU-MIMO, while HE APs can transmit both DL MU PPDUs and UL MU PPDUs by using OFDMA in addition to MU-MIMO.
However, given that DL MU-MIMO is not yet supported, a MultiUserScheduler can only be aggregated to HE APs.

Destructor implementation.
This method is called by Dispose() or by the Object's destructor, whichever comes first.
Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overridden version of this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. i.e, for simplicity, the destructor of every subclass should be empty and its content should be moved to the associated DoDispose() method.
It is safe to call GetObject() from within this method.

Initialize() implementation.
This method is called only once by Initialize(). If the user calls Initialize() multiple times, DoInitialize() is called only the first time.

Notify all Objects aggregated to this one of a new Object being aggregated.
This method is invoked whenever two sets of Objects are aggregated together. It is invoked exactly once for each Object in both sets. This method can be overridden by subclasses who wish to be notified of aggregation events. These subclasses must chain up to their base class NotifyNewAggregate() method.
