  Abstract

Cell zooming adjusts the cell range of base stations depending on traffic condition. The cell zooming can be implemented by the adjustment of antenna angles, the clustering of the base stations, and the cell relay. The base stations can adjust the cell range in term of energy efficiency, which can then reduce the overall energy consumption of cellular networks. There is, however, a trade-off between the energy savings and the blocking probability of user calls. A periodic scheme that manages the cell zooming of the base stations was proposed but it was inadequate for dealing with the dynamic nature of traffic patterns. This paper proposes a semi-periodic cell zooming scheme along with the algorithms that select such base stations and define the operation procedure. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing scheme in terms of the energy savings without the degradation of the blocking probability.
