Green Energy Based Long Term Evolution (LTE) Radio Network Planning for the Case of Semera City

Abstract

 This paper presents an energy efficient Long Term Evolution (LTE) dimensioning and performs a case study in Semera with 35 square kilo meter area. Improved quality of service, cost reduction and making the cellular network green has become the most compelling challenge for researcher and they are important issue affecting the telecom industry. In this paper, the existing five base stations of 3G network has been reduced to three eNodeBs (eNBs) and properly placed as to improve the coverage area. A survey on different sources of energy has been conducted. Finally, an algorithm has been modeled and simulated which has capable of making the network environmental friendly. The proposed algorithm has saved minimum of 1.25% of transmitted power while satisfying quality of service
