随着移动通信系统的快速发展,整个通信行业的年耗电量急剧上升,这不仅给运营商带来了较大的运营成本负担,也给环境带来了污染。因此,针对家庭基站资源浪费的问题,提出一种适用于家庭基站网络的基于聚类算法的节能机制。在家庭基站密集部署的环境中,通过对活动家庭基站进行聚类的方法,可以将网络中不必要的家庭基站进行休眠,从而有效地实现网络节能。通过对不同因素下的家庭基站用户(HUE)的服务质量进行仿真,结果表明,这种新的节能机制不仅提高了HUE的吞吐量,而且提高了系统的容量和节省了能源消耗。
With the rapid development of mobile communication system, the power consumption in whole communications industry grows sharply, this not only brings larger operational cost burden to operators, but also brings pollution to the environment. Therefore, this paper presents a clustering algorithm-based energy saving mechanism suitable for Home eNode B (HeNB) networks aiming at its resources wasting problem. In the environment of dense HeNBs deployment, the method will turn the unnecessary active HeNBs to sleep mode through applying the clustering algorithm on HeNBs, so as to effectively implement networks energy saving. Through simulating the quality of service (QoS) of HeNB users (HUE) under different factors, the results show that the new mechanism improves the throughput of HUE, and also increases the capacity of the system and saves the energy consumption as well.
