Накратко на български

Безжичните 5G мрежи се оптимизират за по-нисък разход на енергия, включително чрез безжично прехвърляне на ток между устройства. Това помага за намаляване на въглеродните емисии и удължава работата на батериите при нарастващия брой свързани устройства.

scalaBle and grEen wireleSs coMmunications for a sustAinable netwoRked socieTy

The develops innovative designs for 5G cellular networks, with reduced energy consumption and overhead requirements compared to available solutions. Moreover, the use of energy-harvesting capabilities for wireless devices is investigated, to make wireless devices greener and able to self-sustain without frequent battery charging. The project also studies the possibility of wirelessly transferring the power among network devices to enable devices with more battery energy to trade/transfer their energy to other devices nearby with low battery levels, in a bluetooth-like fashion. These achievements will allow: a) reducing carbon dioxide emissions due to wireless communications, with a consequent rise of greener networks; b) increasing the network coverage in remote/developing/emergency areas where currently it is commercially unattractive to do so; c) prolonging the lifetime of wireless nodes reducing the need of connecting to fixed power lined to recharge the batteries. Already today, wireless networks are responsible for 2% of the global emissions of carbon dioxide, and this number is expected to grow by 280% by 2020. 5G wireless networks, will have to serve more than 30 billion devices by 2020 and it is forecasted that Between 2020 and 2030, the number of connected devices will rise by 55% each year, reaching 607 exabytes in 2025 and 5,016 exabytes in 2030. It is clear that, without any corrective measures, this situation will lead to an energy crunch which poses sustainable growth as well as ecological and economical concerns. The main conclusion of the action is that a careful design of wireless networks, especially by complementing traditional approaches with the use of artificial intelligence has the potential of making future wireless networks sustainable.

Цел на проекта

The goal of the project is to develop energy-efficient and scalable designs for distributed mobile networks operated by renewable energy sources, and with very limited signaling overhead and computational complexity. The project will design wireless networks, composed by smart nodes, which are able to perform the following tasks: 1) Self-configure, autonomously allocating their own physical layer radio resources through energy-efficient, feedback-aware, and complexity-aware radio resource allocation.2) Self-sustain by harvesting energy from renewable and intermittent energy sources, such as solar and wind, as well as from dedicated radio frequency signals present over the air. 3) Sharing or trading energy with other network nodes in order to prolong the lifetime of nodes which are low on battery and to obtain a more fair energy distribution across the whole network. The long-term vision of the project is to kick-start a paradigm shift from core-centric, throughput-optimized networks, towards device-centric, energy-optimized networks. The development of autonomous, energy-independent, and self-organizing wireless networks will enable: a) 100% coverage in urban environments in a power efficient manner; b) network coverage in remote/developing areas where currently it is commercially unattractive to do so. These advancements will make the vision of a connected society sustainable, almost zeroing the operational expenses related to power and hence revolutionizing the business models for ICT by radically reducing energy costs. This will also facilitate the rise of new markets and applications in remote areas, which contributes to closing the digital divide between densely populated and scarcely populated or rural areas.
