Evaluation of the Energy Impact on Indoor Small Cells and Backhaul

“…Each environment has its own behaviors and analysis, in other words, in a given environment the technology can be discarded, but in another environment it can be valuable. For example, copper is not suitable for outdoor 4G, but it can still play an important role in indoor infrastructure providing up to 100Mbps to 300 meters [9], [10]. As mentioned previously, indoor users represent a larger share of the traffic, and they connect the indoor networks through opportunistic algorithms that control, for example, the best signal choice, and transmission capacity [11].…”

An Energy Efficiency Assessment for Indoor Small Cells Using Copper-Based Backhaul

“…The main technological gap of the copper-based backhaul is associated to the bandwidth, i.e., lower capacity to transmit 100 Mbps up to 300 meters [12]. However, for dense urban areas where all users are connected through fixed broadband and the capacity requirements are respected, copper in the last mile is still an alternative.…”
