Can 3GPP reduce base station energy consumption in 5G NR BS?

Aiming at minimizing the base station (BS) energy consumption under low and medium load scenarios, the 3GPP recently completed a Release 18 study on energy saving techniques for 5G NR BSs . A broad range of techniques was evaluated in terms of the obtained network energy saving (NES) gain and their impact to the user-perceived throughput (UPT).

Can machine learning predict energy consumption for 5g/4g radio base stations?

To further develop energy modelling methodology and attempt to answer the questions presented in the previous section, different machine learning algorithm’s ability to predict energy consumption is investigated for 5G/4G radio base stations.

Does a balanced dataset improve energy prediction of 5G base stations?

For energy prediction of 5G base stations, this thesis finds that using a more balanced dataset, in terms of the number of samples for each product, has a positive impact for the ANN and the Gradient Boosted Trees model while the linear regression performs worse.

How to evaluate a 5G energy-optimised network?

To properly examine an energy-optimised network, it is very crucial to select the most suitable EE metric for 5G networks. EE is the ratio of transmitted bits for every joule of energy expended. Therefore, while measuring it, different perspectives need to be considered such as from the network or user’s point of view.
