Using this technique, the energy consumption of a base station can be reduced by turning off energy-intensive devices inside the base station, or by turning off the entire base station and keeping only the sensing module to wake up the base station.
Their application testing was conducted in two base station sites with different types and the application results show that the average energy costs savings in HVAC operation with the approach are 24.8–32.5%; the total BS site costs savings are more than 13%, and the approach is effective in all weather conditions.
(1) Energy-saving reward: after choosing a shallower sleep strategy for a base station, the system may save more energy if a deeper sleep mode can be chosen, and in this paper, the standardized energy-saving metrics are defined as (18) R i e = E S M = 0 E S M = i E S M = 0 E S M = 3
When there is little or no communication activity, base stations typically consume more than 80% of their peak power consumption, leading to significant energy waste . This energy waste not only increases operational costs, but also burdens the environment, which is contrary to global sustainability goals .
