Popis: To efficiently reduce on-grid energy consumption, the base station (BS) sleeping strategy in the hybrid energy-powered cellular network (HybE-Net) in the Internet of Things environment is studied. In order to maximize on-grid energy saving, a BS sleeping algorithm, which adaptively and cooperatively adjusts the sleeping/non-sleeping state of BSs according to the actual traffic load and solar energy state, is proposed. Specifically, the solar energy state and dynamic characteristics of the BS in solar energy supply stage are analyzed by the approximation diffusion theory. Then, by comprehensively considering communication service quality and on-grid energy saving, BS sleeping constraints are derived mathematically. Subsequently, the BS sleeping problem in HybE-Net is formulated as the on-grid energy consumption maximization problem. To solve the optimization problem, a BS sleeping algorithm based on coalitional games is proposed. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm performs excellently in improving solar energy utilization and reducing on-grid energy consumption of the HybE-Net.
