Abstract

As power consumption is becoming a key issue in mobile communication and the heart of mobile communication is Base Station. This paper concentrates on reducing BS power consumption by using three basic power saving mechanisms: sleep mode, discontinuous transmission and antenna adaptation. This algorithm concentrates on reducing power consumption for MIMO-OFDM. Simulations results state that the proposed algorithm is capable of reducing BS power consumption significantly.Cite this ArticlePooja Ashok Vairagade, Dandekar Pranali R, Megha Shrawanji Meshram.
