Abstract

With the explosive growing demands for high data-rate wireless services, the energy consumption is also increasing at an alarming rate nowadays. Consequently, it leads to a large amount of greenhouse gas and high operation expenditure for wireless service providers. Recently, green radio is becoming increasingly important and navigates new directions for research activities, with emphasis on the energy-efficiency (EE) in wireless systems. An overview of the EE concerned in wireless communications is surveyed in, which recommends the technical roadmaps of several major international projects for energy-efficient wireless networks and investigates the state-of-the-art research on this topic. Particularly, energy-efficient RA has been put on the agenda in both industry and academia, especially for the OFDM-based systems. Different from the two conventional classes of dynamic RA in OFDM systems—rate adaptive and margin adaptive, energy-efficient RA is a special case where the objective is generally to maximize or minimize a certain metric of EE for a wireless system. The most popular one is called “bits-per-Joule”, defined as the system throughput with unit power consumption.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that the upper bound cannot be a feasible solution because the relaxed form of the original problem ignores the integer constraints.
