What are green cellular networks under Smart-Grid environment?
The emerging paradigm of green cellular networks under smart-grid environment is of particular interest to researchers. The bi-directional flow of energy and information in a SG allows intelligent use of grid energy in conjunction with variations in the energy harvested from nature and the prevailing user traffic.
How do cellular network operators shift to green practices?
Cellular network operators attempt to shift toward green practices using two main approaches. The first approach uses energy-efficient hardware to reduce the energy consumption of BSs at the equipment level and adopts economic power sources to feed these stations.
Are solar-powered BSS a cost-effective option for cellular network operators?
Therefore, the use of solar-powered BSs is a cost-effective option for cellular network operators. In June , the LG Uplus operator tested a solar-powered LTE BS with an energy storage system (batteries) that could operate between 24 h and 48 h even on cloudy days.
Are cellular network operators moving towards green cellular BS?
Figure 10 reveals that many cellular network operators in the world have still not shifted toward green cellular BS. Most of these operators are located in developing countries with limited electricity supply and unreliable electric grids. The financial issues in these countries must be investigated further. 4.5.
