摘要：With the rapid development of cellular networks, wireless communication industry has brought huge energy consumption and becomes the major consumer of environmental degradation inevitably. Thus, it is undoubtedly that realizing the sustainable development of green wireless communication has become the primary goal of global information and communications technology industry. Particularly, in cellular networks, sleep mode applied to base station (BS) is an efficient way. According to the cell traffic intensity, BS switching off/on strategy can reduce power consumption of BS effectively with a pre-condition that the quality of service (QoS) of users must be ensured. In the heterogeneous cellular networks, we proposed a BS sleeping scheme based on the traffic load varying in each cell, which is able to optimize both energy efficiency and power consumption by a multi-objective optimization problem. Then a sub-optimal solution is obtained according to a heuristic algorithm. The simulation results verified that the proposed scheme can improve the network performance.
