“…Contribution [84] presents a framework for self-organizing cells that autonomously activate or deactivate in response to traffic demands. Network deployment in response to traffic conditions is also analyzed in [85]. There, it is shown that in the presence of heavy traffic conditions, deploying indoor small cells is more energy-efficient than traditional network layouts.…”

Abstract-After about a decade of intense research, spurred by both economic and operational considerations, and by environmental concerns, energy efficiency has now become a key pillar in the design of communication networks. With the advent of the fifth generation of wireless networks, with millions more base stations and billions of connected devices, the need for energy-efficient system design and operation will be even more compelling. This survey provides an overview of energy-efficient wireless communications, reviews seminal and recent contribution to the state-of-the-art, including the papers published in this special issue, and discusses the most relevant research challenges to be addressed in the future.

“…To meet the foreseen demands in 5G networks, especially those of indoor users, several studies are investigating cost and energy-efficient network architectures between radio processing units and the antennas, i.e., the fronthaul layer, and between the network core and the radio processing units, i.e., the backhaul layer [METIS2020, Fiorani et al 2014, Jaber et al 2016, Tonini and Federico et al 2017, Fiorani et al 2016, Fernandez and Stol 2017.…”

Fifth generation (5G) cellular networks will be the key element of a society that is becoming increasingly interconnected and digitalized. Applications adopted in many social and industrial sectors will require from 5G networks higher standards of availability and reliability. These requirements are leading operators to plan the deployment of protection schemes in the backhaul layer. In this context, our aim is to employ simulation to assess in a technical and economic way different backhaul protection schemes based on passive optical network (PON). The results indicate that the use of protection can increase the viability of 5G networks based on a PON backhaul supporting a hybrid fronthaul with fiber and copper.

“…The key rationale behind a HetNet deployment is to provide user coverage via macro base stations (BSs) and to guarantee high capacity to costumers only where needed via the ad hoc deployment of small cells, i.e., micro, pico, and/or femto BSs. HetNets have a number of advantages, which include reduced energy consumption both in indoor [1] and in outdoor [2] deployments. In fact, small cells consume less power than macro BSs.…”

Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) have the potential to cater for the capacity requirements of mobile broadband services at reduced cost and energy consumption levels. One key aspect in HetNets is the role of the backhaul. More specifically, it is crucial for a mobile operator to understand the impact of specific technological and architectural upgrades in the mobile backhaul network on the capital and operational expenditure (i.e., CAPEX and OPEX). This paper proposes a comprehensive methodology that can be used to analyze the total cost of ownership of a number of backhaul options based on fiber, microwave, and copper technologies. The study considers both a Greenfield and a Brownfield scenario and takes into account the mobile broadband capacity requirements for the time period between years 2015 and 2025. From the results presented in the paper it can be concluded that even though microwave and fiber will be predominately used in the future, the possible migration paths leading to such fiber-and microwave-based backhaul scenarios might be different, depending upon factors such as spectrum and license costs, time to deployment, availability of equipment, and required quality of service levels.
