A massive increase in the amount of data traffic over mobile wireless communication has
been observed in recent years, while further rapid growth is expected in the years ahead …

In this survey, we discuss the role of energy in the design of future mobile networks and, in
particular, we advocate and elaborate on the use of energy harvesting (EH) hardware as a …

Future mobile networks (MNs) are required to be flexible with minimal infrastructure
complexity, unlike current ones that rely on proprietary network elements to offer their …

In this paper, we focus on the design of energy self-sustainable mobile networks by enabling
intelligent energy management that allows the base stations to mostly operate off-grid by …

Energy Harvesting technology contributes significantly to green cellular networking by
ensuring self-sustainability and extinguishing environmental hazards. Due to the imbalance …

The design of self-sustainable base station (BS) deployments is addressed in this paper. We
target deployments featuring small BSs with energy harvesting (EH) and storage …

Energy self-sufficiency is of prime importance for future mobile networks. The design of
energy efficient and possibly self-sustainable base stations is key to reduce their impact on …

Battery energy is a crucial issue that limits battery-powered mobile devices' operational
efficiency in Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs). Failure of a node affects both the lifetime …
