We introduce a novel approach that jointly optimizes planning and management for cellular networks, aiming at limiting the energy expenses while guaranteeing QoS and minimizing operators capital expenses. Results from LTE test networks confirm that an effective energy-efficient operation depends on the planning decisions and show that power savings of up to 54% can be obtained with modest increases in initial investments.

Abstract

We introduce a novel approach that jointly optimizes planning and management for cellular networks, aiming at limiting the energy expenses while guaranteeing QoS and minimizing operators capital expenses. Results from LTE test networks confirm that an effective energy-efficient operation depends on the planning decisions and show that power savings of up to 54% can be obtained with modest increases in initial investments.
