A Traffic Load Aware Approach for Optimum Throughput in 5G Heterogeneous Cellular Networks

Abstract

The ever-increasing demands of current wireless devices for high data throughput and frequent mobility forces network operators to provide seamless connectivity with guaranteed QoS to all wireless users. This situation creates a big concern in design and development of cost-effective and energy efficient solution for 5G cellular networks. small cells (Femtocells) deployment provides low cost and energy efficient solution if equipped with smart and efficient power saving techniques. In this paper, we have proposed a data traffic demands aware approach for optimum throughput and maximum energy utilization while maintaining the desired QoS required by users. The results and analysis confirm that the proposed approach will not only provide better energy utilization and optimum data throughput but will also contribute towards energy efficient aspect of 5G cellular networks.
