Abstract

In this paper, we study the energy-efficient deployment strategy for micro base station (BS) in wireless cellular systems. Firstly, we formulate a general problem pertaining to total energy consumption minimization with the requirement of area spectral efficiency (ASE). We start from an observation about the correlation between the area covered by an additional micro BS and the increment of ASE. Under such an observation, we propose an efficient greedy micro BS deployment algorithm. Simulations show that the proposed deployment algorithm can deploy micro BSs with a slight performance reduction comparing with the optimal solution.

본 논문은 셀룰러 시스템에서 에너지 효율적인 마이크로 기지국 배치 방안에 관한 것이다. 먼저 기지국 배치는 영역에 대한 고려가 필요하기 때문에 공간 스펙트럼 효율(ASE)을 제한조건으로 하여, 제한조건을 만족하면서 에너지 사용을 최소로 하는 최적화 문제를 제시한다. 최적화 문제의 계산 복잡도를 감소시키기 위하여 마이크로 기지국 배치에 따른 기지국 서비스 영역과 ASE간의 관계를 기반으로 하는 마이크로 기지국 배치 방안을 제안한다. 모의실험을 통하여 제한된 알고리즘이 일정 범위 안에서 최적해의 성능을 만족시킴을 보인다.
