Abstract
Currently, Cellular architectures are designed with an efficient providing infrastructure is one of the critical challenges in 5G dense heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets). By adding many small base stations (SBSs) in a macro base station (MBS) is one way to support the rapid growth of mobile data communication, high data rate services and to provide continuous coverage. The high number of network elements leads to a significant increase in power consumption. To solve the problem, the SBS on/off algorithm has been introduced to reduce power consumption but also reduced energy efficiency as we called the conventional schemes. This paper we proposed as the SBS switching to sleep state algorithm based on the system throughput (MBS cell throughput and SBS cell throughput) is used the decision criteria for SBS to be in the sleep state. The simulation results, The proposed scheme can reduce the total power consumption of the network and enhance energy efficiency more than the conventional schemes.
