We propose a new approach for jointly scheduling deep sleep and allocating pilot and data
transmit power in small cells with the aim of minimising energy consumption while …

In this paper, we investigate the energy consumption issue which stems from the enormous
number of running small cells deploying in the heterogeneous networks. We first propose …

Small cell base stations (BSs) that form an overlay layer on the existing macrocell network
offer tremendous potential in terms of satisfying high data rate traffic requirements and …

Small cells deployed over the existing macrocell network reduce the access distance and
thus offer an energy-efficient solution to provide high data rate coverage. However, dense …

Sleep mode techniques for small cells provide an effective means to mitigate excessive
energy consumption and interference associated with ultra-dense small cell deployments …

Dense deployment of small cells is seen as one of the major approaches for addressing the
traffic demands in next-generation wireless networks. However, dense deployment of large …

With the exponential increase in mobile internet traffic driven by a new generation of
wireless devices, future cellular networks face a great challenge to meet this overwhelming …
