Spectrum and Energy Efficient Cooperative Base Station Doze

This paper aims to explore the potential of a high spectrum efficiency (SE) technology, coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission, for improving energy efficiency (EE) of downlink cellular networks. To this end, a traffic-aware mechanism, named cooperative base station (BS) doze, is introduced and optimized. The key idea is to allow BS idling by exploiting the delay tolerance of some users as well as the short-term spatio-temporal traffic fluctuations in the network, and to increase the opportunity of the idling by using CoMP transmission. The cooperative BS doze strategy involves BS time-slot doze pattern, and multicell user scheduling and cooperative precoding with different amount of data sharing, which are jointly optimized in a unified framework. To ensure various performance requirements of multiple users including delay tolerance and data rate, we maximize the network EE under different time-average rate constraints for different users, where the consumptions on transmit power, circuitry power and backhauling power are taken into account. We then propose a hierarchical iterative algorithm to solve the optimization problem. Simulations under practical power consumption parameters demonstrate that cooperative BS doze can provide substantial EE gain and support high data rate services with high achievable SE.
