Power consumption model for macrocell and microcell base stations

Power consumption model for macrocell and microcell base stations

In this paper, a power consumption model for both macrocell and microcell base stations is proposed. This model is validated by temporal power measurements on actual base stations and an excellent agreement is obtained. Furthermore, the power consumption’s evolution during the day is investigated by means of these measurements. The energy efficiency of three different wireless technologies is c...

A Review: Power Consumption at Base Stations in Wireless Networks

ABSRACT This paper deals with study and analysis of the investigating power consumption in wireless network and investigating the possible way to reduce the power consumption at Base Station. We also characterized the techniques of the power consumption in wireless network and to explain the latest work on this way. This paper is also showing that the effects of the techniques on power consumpt...

Reducing the Power Consumption in Wire- Less Access Networks: Overview and Recom- Mendations

Due to growing importance of wireless access and the steeply growing data volumes being transported, the power consumption of wireless access networks will become an important issue in the coming years. This paper presents a model for this power consumption and investigates three base station types: macrocell, microcell, and femtocell base stations. Based on these models, the coverage effective...

Minimum cost solar power systems for LTE macro base stations

This paper proposes an algorithm for the identification of the minimum cost solution over a 10 year time horizon to power an LTE (Long-Term Evolution) macro base station, using a photovoltaic solar panel, a set of batteries, and optionally also a secondary power source, which can be a connection to a (possibly unreliable) power grid, or a small Diesel generator. The optimization is formalised a...
