Dynamic planning has been used by network operators for energy saving by switching ON-
OFF base stations (BSs) according to the traffic load condition while providing quality-of …

In large-scale mobile networks, energy minimization problem pertaining to base station (BS)
switching is known to require high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose a …

In this letter, we develop a time-varied probabilistic on/off switching planning method for
cellular networks to reduce their energy consumption. It consists in a risk-aware optimization …

Energy efficiency in cellular networks is a major issue for current and future mobile networks.
Several approaches have been proposed for this purpose: the component approach, the …

In this paper we study base station sleep modes, which are today considered a viable
approach to improve the energy efficiency of cellular access networks, by reducing power …

With rapid surge in the number of mobile devices (MDs), demand for more data rates is
increasing day by day. Providing connectivity to MDs and to meet the demand for high data …

In this paper we evaluate the energy efficiency of a 5G radio access network (RAN) based
on LTE technology when comparing two small cell deployment strategies to enhance the …

Focusing on the energy efficiency (EE) improving problem in a densely deployed cellular
network with partial conventional base stations (BSs) that cannot be frequently switched …

Cell switch-off (CSO) is recognized as a promising approach to reduce the energy
consumption in the next-generation cellular networks. However, CSO poses serious …

The sleeping strategy has become popular to reduce power consumption of base stations
(BSs) by shutting down underutilized BSs in the management of green cellular networks. In …
