Abstract
Although the application of the exhaustive search ES algorithm in the energy conservation strategy can realize the simultaneous switching off of multiple eNBs in the existing eNB-based Evolved Node B networks, it fails to satisfy the practical requirement of network deployment with the heavy computation burden. On account of this, this paper proposes an optimal switching-off eNB selection OSS algorithm in homogeneous networks. By selecting a certain cell within the coverage of multiple eNBs, the OSS algorithm can make an evaluation of the increment of network load caused by the switching off of various eNBs in the coverage area. Then it can sort one by one all of the eNBs that are to be switched off under the condition that the QoS Quality of service requirement of all of the users has been met. Afterwards, the OSS algorithm will switch the users according to the principle of least network load increment and eventually find an eNB that shows the optimal energy saving effect in sleep mode. The simulation results reveal that the OSS algorithm can satisfy the requirement of efficient energy conservation in wireless networks. Additionally, with low computational complexity, it also will facilitate network deployment.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Interdisciplinary Telecommunications and Networking (IJITN) examines timely and important telecommunications and networking issues, problems, and solutions from a multidimensional, interdisciplinary perspective for researchers and practitioners. IJITN emphasizes the cross-disciplinary viewpoints of electrical engineering, computer science, information technology, operations research, business administration, economics, sociology, and law. The journal publishes theoretical and empirical research findings, case studies, and surveys, as well as the opinions of leaders and experts in the field. The journal''s coverage of telecommunications and networking is broad, ranging from cutting edge research to practical implementations. Published articles must be from an interdisciplinary, rather than a narrow, discipline-specific viewpoint. The context may be industry-wide, organizational, individual user, or societal. Topics Covered: -Emerging telecommunications and networking technologies -Global telecommunications industry business modeling and analysis -Network management and security -New telecommunications applications, products, and services -Social and societal aspects of telecommunications and networking -Standards and standardization issues for telecommunications and networking -Strategic telecommunications management -Telecommunications and networking cultural issues and education -Telecommunications and networking hardware and software design -Telecommunications investments and new ventures -Telecommunications network modeling and design -Telecommunications regulation and policy issues -Telecommunications systems economics
