Abstract:The demand for bandwidth in cellular networks is ever increasing and most of it originates from indoor users. Femtocells are low-power, low-cost home base stations that can be deployed by end users in homes/offices to satisfy this need without incurring significant deployment and running costs. Widespread deployment of femtocells appear a potential reality in near future, and hence, it is of interest to study its energy saving measures. One promising energy efficiency technique is the introduction of sleep mod… Show more
