AI-Ready Energy Modelling for Next Generation RAN
2024 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC)(2024)
摘要
Recent sustainability drives place energy-consumption metrics in centre-stage for the design of future radio access networks (RAN). At the same time, optimising the trade-off between performance and system energy usage by machine-learning (ML) is an approach that requires large amounts of granular RAN data to train models, and to adapt in near realtime. In this paper, we present extensions to the system-level discrete-event AIMM (AI-enabled Massive MIMO) Simulator, generating realistic figures for throughput and energy efficiency (EE) towards digital twin network modelling. We further investigate the trade-off between maximising either EE or spectrum efficiency (SE). To this end, we have run extensive simulations of a typical macrocell network deployment under various transmit power-reduction scenarios with a range of difference of 43 dBm. Our results demonstrate that the EE and SE objectives often require different power settings in different scenarios. Importantly, low mean user CPU execution times of 2.17 ± 0.05 seconds (2 s.d.) demonstrate that the AIMM Simulator is a powerful tool for quick prototyping of scalable system models which can interface with ML frameworks, and thus support future research in energy-efficient next generation networks.
