5、.1331 (04/2017) i Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 Assessment of mobile network energy efficiency Summary Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 aims to provide a better understanding of the energy efficiency of mobile networks. The focus of this Recommendation is on the metrics and methods of assessing energy effi

6、ciency in operational networks. The networks considered are those whose size and scale could be defined by topologic, geographic or demographic boundaries. This Recommendation explains how to extrapolate the measurements made on partial networks to the level of the total network. Such a simplified a

7、pproach is proposed as a way of making approximate energy efficiency evaluations at the level of network elements, and cannot therefore be considered sufficient for the entire network operation including, for example, transport.

9、-en. ii Rec. ITU-T L.1331 (04/2017) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ o

10、f ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topi

11、cs for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prep

12、ared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation ma

13、y contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to e

14、xpress requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Pr

15、operty Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice

16、of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. ITU 2017

22、 considers the definition of metrics and methods used to measure energy efficiency performance of mobile radio access networks and adopts an approach based on the measurement of such performance on small networks, for feasibility and simplicity purposes. Such a simplified approach is proposed for ap

23、proximating energy efficiency evaluations and cannot be considered as a reference for planning evaluation purposes throughout the network operation process. The same approach was introduced in ETSI TR 103 117; the measurements in testing laboratories of the efficiency of the base stations is the top

24、ic treated in ETSI ES 202 706. The measurement of this performance is useful for many reasons, and implementation guidelines are given in clause 11. Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 also provides an extrapolation method to extend the applicability of the assessment of energy efficiency to wider networks.

25、 The general outcome of the application of the method specified is based on the “Assessment report“ introduced in clause 10. An example of an application of the method is given for better readability and ease of use in Appendix I. Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 was developed jointly by ETSI TC EE and I

26、TU-T Study Group 5 and published by ITU and ETSI as Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 and ETSI Standard ETSI ES 203 228 respectively, which are technically equivalent. Rec. ITU-T L.1331 (04/2017) 1 Recommendation ITU-T L.1331 Assessment of mobile network energy efficiency 1 Scope This Recommendation aims

27、to provide a better understanding of the energy efficiency of mobile networks. The focus of this Recommendation is on metrics for energy efficiency and methods of assessing (and measuring) energy efficiency in operational networks. This Recommendation defines the topology and level of analysis neede

28、d to assess the energy efficiency. The analysis includes radio base stations, backhauling systems, radio controllers (RCs) and other infrastructure radio site equipment. The technologies involved are global system for mobile communication (GSM), universal mobile telecommunications service (UMTS) and

29、 long term evolution (LTE) (including LTE advanced (LTE-A). Both homogeneous and heterogeneous networks are considered, whose size and scale could be defined by topologic, geographic or demographic boundaries. An example of a network defined by topologic boundaries consists of a control node (whenev

30、er applicable), its supported access nodes and related network elements. Networks could also be defined by geographic boundaries, such as city-wide, national or continental, or they could be defined by demographic boundaries, such as urban or rural networks. This Recommendation also applies to so-ca

31、lled “partial“ networks, where energy efficiency is measured in some recommended way. The specification extends the measurements made in partial networks to the wider, so-called “total“ network energy efficiency estimation, such as the network in a geographical area, the network in an entire country

32、 or the network of a mobile network operator (MNO). Terminal (end-user) equipment is outside the scope of this Recommendation and is not considered in the energy efficiency measurement. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference
