Abstract
ABSTRACTThe primary source of a mobile cellular network's energy consumption is its base stations. It's critical to measure how much weekend or workday fluctuations in traffic load affect base station power consumption because these variations occur often in mobile networks. Therefore, this paper investigates changes in the instantaneous power consumption, Load Traffic Demand as well as the Interference power of a typical MTN GSM 666 macro base transceiver station (BTS) in Nigeria. The actual traffic load and power consumption data came from measurements taken at a base station location that was operational. Data demonstrates that base station traffic load and power usage are directly correlated. A linear power consumption model for both technologiesbase stations based on this relationship was created. Simulation results show that a zero-deviation occurred between the experimental and simulated power consumption, whereas a 3.61% deviation occurred between the experimental and simulated SNIR.
