Abstract: Dense deployment of small base stations (SBSs) within the coverage of macro base station (MBS) has been spotlighted as a promising solution to conserve grid energy in hybrid-energy heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs), which caters to the rapidly increasing demand of mobile user (MUs).
Base line small cell base station In cellular networks, to meet the increasing demand of high-data-rate for wireless applications, small cell BSs provide a promising and feasible approach but that consumes more power. The base line of small cell BSs is shown in Fig. 1.
To optimize the deployment of small cell BSs in the small cell network, Venkateswararao and Swain proposed an efficient cell modeling (ECM) algorithm for small cell formation and binary particle swarm optimization-based small cell deployment (BPSD).
In, Yang et al. proposed light sleep and deep sleep for cellular BSs according to the URs available in the BSs coverage area. But introducing sleeping strategies in small cell as well as 5G small cell BSs are not enough to minimize more power consumption and maximize more power saving i.e., higher energy efficiency.
In, Hawasli and Colak used sleeping strategy in 5G heterogeneous small cell BSs to optimize the power consumption. They displayed that by applying sleeping strategy and their three proposed algorithms can save about (20%) power daily in 5G heterogeneous small cell BSs.
It is shown that the proposed scheme outperforms other schemes and can also maximize the EE in hybrid-energy HCNs.
