Green Radio Technology for Energy Saving in Cellular Towers with Embedded Systems and IOT

Abstract

In modern days number of cell phone users are increasing at a higher rate. Along with the increasing rate of users also comes the increasing need of more speed for faster browsing, good calling quality and hence invention of cellular technologies like 3G, 4G, 5G, etc. With this evaluation in mobile bands there has been an increase in the number of cellular towers installed to provide flawless network to all the users, but one thing remains unchecked is the energy consumed by these towers. For mobile towers, the consumption of energy is in terms of electricity and which is produced in great amount by either using coal or by burning fossil fuels (Generators that run in Diesels). Based on various network operators, it has been seen that the energy consumed by the radio access networks is the most imminent factor relating to impact on the environment. Also, the current wireless system is not energy efficient mainly the Base Station (BS). In order to restructure the existing network architecture, we need to control each and every system of the base station. We have proposed an innovative and promising method for enhancing the energy efficiency of the wireless networks and have developed solutions on IOT which will surely reduce the operating cost and effects on the environment.
