Technical FAQs 4

Should power consumption models be used in 5G networks?

This restricts the potential use of the power models, as their validity and accuracy remain unclear. Future work includes the further development of the power consumption models to form a unified evaluation framework that enables the quantification and optimization of energy consumption and energy efficiency of 5G networks.

Does 5G increase energy consumption?

However, this technological leap comes with a substantial increase in energy consumption. Compared to its predecessor, the fourth-generation (4G) network, the energy consumption of the 5G network is approximately three times higher .

Does 5G configuration affect base station capacity?

In this study, we mainly focused on the commercial 5G non-standalone networks, 2 and the configurations (transmit and receive antennas, spectrum frequency and bandwidth) defined in this part has a decisive impact on base station capacity (see Eq.1).

Does a balanced dataset improve energy prediction of 5G base stations?

For energy prediction of 5G base stations, this thesis finds that using a more balanced dataset, in terms of the number of samples for each product, has a positive impact for the ANN and the Gradient Boosted Trees model while the linear regression performs worse.
