Green Mobile Networks: A Networking Perspective (Wiley - IEEE)

Green communications is a very hot topic. As mobile networks evolve in terms of higher rates/throughput, a consequent impact on operating costs is due to (aggregate) network energy consumption. As such, design on 4G networks and beyond have increasingly started to focus on `energy efficiency’ or so-called ‘green’ networks. Many techniques and solutions have been proposed to enhance the energy efficiency of mobile networks, yet no book has provided an in-depth analysis of the energy consumption issues in mobile networks nor has detailed theories, tools and solutions for solving the energy efficiency problems.

This book presents the techniques and solutions for enhancing energy efficiency of future mobile networks, and consists of three major parts. The first part presents a general description of mobile network evolution in terms of both capacity and energy efficiency. The second part discusses the advanced techniques to green mobile networks. The third part discusses the solutions that enhance mobile network energy efficiency as well as provides future directions. Whilst the reader is expected to have basic knowledge of wireless communications, the authors present a brief introduction of the evolution of mobile networks, providing the knowledge base for understanding the content of the book. In addition, complicated network problems are illustrated using simple examples. This will help the reader understand the concept and intuition of various techniques and solutions.

• Incorporates the latest research results from both academia and industry, providing an up-to-date overview of existing technologies and solutions on making mobile networks greener

• Consists of three sections with a gradually increasing technical depth on green mobile networks, providing the reader with a systematic view of the research area, and helping those with different technical backgrounds to better understand the content
• Covers existing enabling technologies for green mobile networking, including an innovative discussion of state-of-the-art solutions and algorithms

綠色通訊是一個非常熱門的話題。隨著移動網絡在速率/吞吐量方面的發展，網絡能耗的增加對運營成本產生了相應的影響。因此，4G網絡及其後續設計越來越注重“能源效率”或所謂的“綠色”網絡。已經提出了許多技術和解決方案來提高移動網絡的能源效率，但目前還沒有一本書對移動網絡的能源消耗問題進行了深入分析，也沒有提供解決能源效率問題的詳細理論、工具和解決方案。

本書介紹了提高未來移動網絡能源效率的技術和解決方案，分為三個主要部分。第一部分介紹了移動網絡在容量和能源效率方面的一般描述。第二部分討論了綠色移動網絡的先進技術。第三部分討論了提高移動網絡能源效率的解決方案，並提供了未來的發展方向。雖然讀者需要具備無線通訊的基本知識，但作者們對移動網絡的演進進行了簡要介紹，為理解本書的內容提供了知識基礎。此外，本書使用簡單的例子來說明複雜的網絡問題，有助於讀者理解各種技術和解決方案的概念和直覺。

本書結合了學術界和工業界的最新研究成果，提供了關於使移動網絡更綠色的現有技術和解決方案的最新概述。

本書分為三個部分，技術深度逐漸增加，提供了對綠色移動網絡研究領域的系統性視角，幫助具有不同技術背景的讀者更好地理解內容。

本書涵蓋了綠色移動網絡的現有技術，包括對最先進的解決方案和算法的創新討論。
