“…HetNet wireless system consists of different types of Base-Stations (BSs), for macrocell, microcell, picocell and femtocell [22], [54]. In a typical BS, the power consumption will not remain fixed, equal to the one given at maximum load, but will change based on the actual real-time changing traffic load.…”

“…Also the baseband processor shows a slight dependence on traffic load due to lower dynamic power consumption when less users/less subcarriers have to be processed. On the other hand, the smallsignal RF transceiver will show no dependence on the traffic load [54]. The relation between relative RF output power and BS power consumption of these reference configurations are nearly linear [55].…”

Abstract-Energy efficient (EE) communication has earnedtremendous interest in recent years due to ever increasing number of wireless devices operating in shrinking cells, while demanding high data rates with high Quality of Services (QoS) and Quality of Expectation (QoE). To support these objectives, energy is consumed in every protocol layer. Establishing and maintaining a successful wireless communication link to simultaneously achieve all these objectives becomes challenging since the energy consumption requirements of the user and network are different for different objectives. Thus, there is a need for tradeoff techniques to achieve energy efficiency in each protocol layer. In this paper, we provide a survey of different tradeoff mechanisms proposed in the literature. The EE tradeoffs have been classified based on each protocol layer and discussed its affect in the network energy efficiency. These other QoS parameters include spectral efficiency, deployment, delay, routing, scheduling, bandwidth and coding etc. This survey also discusses the various EE techniques to improve energy-efficiency in infrastructure mode. Finally, the work provides an discussion, where impact of EE tradeoffs have been presented based on different wireless architecture towards realizing a green wireless communication network.
