Project Title
Energy efficiency maximization for next generation wireless communication systems
Project Description
As mobile networks continuously densify, the huge energy consumption has brought a heavy burden to operators, which may become the bottleneck of future network development. Therefore, green communications have drawn increasing research interests during recent years. Specifically, Energy Efficiency (EE), i.e., the amount of transmitted data with per unit energy consumption, has been considered as one of the key performance metrics in the upcoming 5G era and beyond. In this summer study period, a few fundamental optimization techniques will be studied to obtain power allocation strategies to maximize system energy efficiency.
Student Responsibility
