Energy efficiency is an important factor toward sustainable future mobile network systems. As the size of the 5G mobile network system increases, the consumption and costs of energy increase. Accordingly, energy-saving optimization has become a major process in network systems, and various related technologies for energy saving are being developed. We provide a brief review of the technical trends in energy saving in 3GPP 5G & 5G Advanced systems and O-RAN systems. We focus on power models and energy-saving technologies in various resource domains of 3GPP 5G & 5G Advanced systems and energy-saving use cases of O-RAN systems.

본 논문은 모바일 ad-hoc 무선 센서 네트워크에서 전력 절약 고속의 멀티미디어 서비스를 지원하는 Cross-Layer 전송 구조(CLTA)를 제안한다. 본 논문의 주요한 목적은 모바일 ad-hoc 무선 센서 네트워크에서 경로들의 생존시간(lifetime)을 증가시키기 위해서 노드들의 이동성 기반위에서 경로의 안정성을 결정하는 방법과 전송전력을 절약하는 방법을 제안하고 보여주는 것이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 네트워크 계층 기술과 물리계층 기술의 융합과 상호 유기적인 관계로 인해서 시너지 효과를 얻을 수 있는 Cross-Layer 구조 전략을 제안한다. 기존의 연구들은 주로 고정된 노드들로 구성된 센서 필드 환경에서 연구가 진행된 반면에, 본 논문은 센서 필드에서 고정된 노드들뿐만 아니라 이동 센서노드들도 함께 고려한 좀 더 실제적인 환경에서 연구가 진행된다. 제안된 구조(CLTA)의 성능평가는 시뮬레이션과 이론적인 분석을 통하여 이루어진다.

This paper proposes a performance evaluation method for power consumption of set-top box (STB) stand-by mode transition schemes. A stand-by mode transition scheme characterizes the timing of mode transition. The timing of mode transition affects the duration of stand-by mode operation, and the power consumptions of STB as well. Recently a fast stand-by mode transition scheme (FMT) has been proposed based on user input for selecting the device to be connected to TV. In this paper, we evaluate power consumption of FMT and a conventional mode transition scheme. For the computation of the duration of stand-by mode operation, the user input events are modeled as Poisson process. Simulation results based on the modeling reveals that the proposed scheme is more effective in power saving than the conventional scheme by up to 30%.

DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting for Handhold) is a new standard, currently being developed, which defines mobile enhancements for the DVB-T (DVB-Terrestrial) standard. For the reception of service via mobile handhold devices, seamless mobility and power saving are essential requirements of DVB-H. For seamless handover, the receiver should monitor neighboring cells and it increases the power consumption. And so, power efficient handover scheme to support both mobility and power saving is required. In this paper, we propose cell searching scheme to reduce power consumption by reducing the number of frequency scanning during the handover. Through the numerical evaluation, we analyzethe performance of handover schemes.

Reduction of power consumption has been a major issue and an interesting challenge to maximize the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. We investigate the practical meaning of N-policy in queues as a power saving technique in a WSN. We consider the N-policy of a finite M/M/1 queue. We formulate the optimization problem of power consumption considering the packet loss probability. We analyze the trade-off between power consumption and the packet loss probability and demonstrate the operational characteristics of N-policy as a power saving technique in a WSN with various numerical examples.

Small type electric energy saving system is proposed in this paper. The system improves power factor fastly according to load variation of each customer. Phases of voltage and current are detected as 1[ms] unit. Phase coincident algorithm is applied for power factor improvement. Capacitance is controlled for optimal power factor correction. Series reactor is controlled for harmonics reduction. Non-contact device is used for fast response and long life. Test result shows the effect of this system. Power factor of 40[W] electric fan is improved from 95[%] to 100[%]. In the case of electric light, power factor is improved from 82[%] to 100[%]. Response time for load variation is less than 1[ms].

This paper presents an advanced energy saving algorithm in building. It is important to aggregate a various demand side resource which is controllable on demand response environment. Previous demand side algorithm for building is restricted on peak power. In this paper, we suggest duty cycle algorithm for AHU on demand response to reduce the quantity of building power consumption. The test results show that the proposed algorithm is very effective.

This paper presents an energy saving hydrostatic pressure exchanger for sea water desalination equipment. In a reverse osmosis(RO) system for desalinating sea water, more than 70 percent of the supplied sea water, brines which were impassable through RO membrane are bypassed, resulting in high energy losses. In this paper, a hydrostatic pressure exchanger consisting of an embedded water hydraulic piston motor and a water hydraulic piston pump was proposed and investigated in order to recover the energy of the bypassed brines. The pressurized brines are supplied to the embedded water hydraulic piston motor as power sources and the water hydraulic piston pump is driven by the output torque of the embedded water hydraulic piston motor as well as electric motor. Consequently, the energy of the bypassed brines can be recovered. To examine the electric energy saving characteristics of the hydrostatic pressure exchanger, a simulation model was constructed using commercial software and experiments were conducted. Through the results of simulation and experiment, the feasibility of the electric energy saving effect of the proposed hydrostatic pressure exchanger was investigated.
