The AI/ML techniques are used to reduce the required processing and also to recognise patterns in the system level data associated with the behaviour of the user base and to learn the most appropriate response to this behaviour in terms of both network performance and also energy consumption. <strong>BeGREEN</strong> uses the emerging O-RAN standard and its evolution as the baseline architecture. The disaggregation, virtualisation and network and service management capabilities inherent in O-RAN provide the mechanisms to realise many of the infrastru
502cture changes and techniques for energy optimisation discussed above.<br /> 503A priority for <strong>BeGREEN</strong> will be to establish a solid techno-economic basis for assessment of technology choices where energy efficiency is an explicit characteristic rather than an afterthought. With 5G networks being rolled out across the globe, and technologies addressing 6G use cases being actively debated in academic and industrial fora, there is still surprisingly little analysis of the actual impact of specific engineering choices made by the technical community in development of 5G. <strong>BeGREEN</strong> takes an evidence-based assessment of current and emerging radio access technology choices to expose the practical energy cost of cutting-edge technologies to help community achieve energy consumption targets. With this fundamental capability in place, the project will be in a strong position to achieve the objectives listed below.</p> </div> 504 </div> 505 <div class="col-sm-6"> 506 <div class="page_element page_element_4c6840ea element-style-100 el_col_2 el_col_2_2 page_element_type_43 element_showcase gutter-bottom"> 507 508 <style> 509 .page_element_4c6840ea{ 510 background-repeat:no-repeat !important; 511 background-position:center !important; 512 background-size:cover !important; 513 background-image: url('https://content.webfactorysite.co.uk/sr_1684554_large.jpg?t=1710009299')!important; 514 } 515 </style> 516 517 518 519 <div class="showcase-content text-center"> 520 <div class="showcase-text"> 521 <h3 class="">Vision</h3> </div> 522 </div> 523 524 525 </div> 526 </div> 527 528 529 </div> 530 </div> 531 </div> 532 533 <div class="pagesection cols-multiple pagesection-element-style-100 pagesection-element-style-122 odd pagesection-fullwidth pagesection-tight pagesection-projectssection pagesection-flex-content" id="pagesection-508767"> 534 <div class="pagesection-container container-fluid container-tight " > 535 <div id="concept" class="row projectssection flex-content row-2cols-6-6"> 536 537 538 539 540 <div class="col-sm-6"> 541 <div class="page_element page_element_b8e75a0b9 element-style-100 el_col_1 el_col_1_3 page_element_type_43 element_showcase gutter-bottom"> 542 543 <style> 544 .page_element_b8e75a0b9{ 545 background-repeat:no-repeat !important; 546 background-position:center !important; 547 background-size:cover !important; 548 background-image: url('https://content.webfactorysite.co.uk/sr_1684555_large.jpg?t=1710009299')!important; 549 } 550 </style> 551 552 553 554 <div class="showcase-content text-center"> 555 <div class="showcase-text"> 556 <h3 class="">Concept</h3> </div> 557 </div> 558 559 560 </div> 561 </div> 562 <div class="col-sm-6"> 563 <div class="page_element page_element_9383842ebb element-style-122 well el_col_2 el_col_2_3 page_element_type_18 element_text gutter-bottom"> 564 <p><strong>BeGREEN</strong> evaluate different mechanisms by which power consumption could be reduced based on the following pillars:</p> 565<p>At the architecture level, planning and evaluation of a massive MIMO included RAN design to achieve flexible and energy efficient connectivity considering spectrum utilisation, interference mitigation and architecture/processing complexity.</p> 566<p>At the hardware and infrastructure level, radio-unit controlling schemes will be used in power amplifiers energy optimisation.
