Abstract

This paper studies the energy efficiency (EE) optimization problem in multicell wireless networks in which each base station (BS) equipped with multiple antennas serves multiple users at the same time and in the same frequency. The problem of interest is to design the precoders to maximize the network EE subject to practical power constraints at physical layers. The resultant optimization design problem is nonconvex fractional programming and, thus, finding its optimal solution is mathematically challenging. In this paper, we use a combination of difference of convex (d.c.) programming and the Dinkelbach algorithm to iteratively solve the optimization problem. Then, by numerical simulations, we verify the convergence characteristics of the iterative algorithm and examine the EE performance of the system as compared to an spectral efficiency (SE) approach.
