Análise da eficiência energética de redes de telecomunicações.

Abstract

With the increasing growth of the telecommunications network, caused by the mass adoption of IP networks as the main channel of information consumption and data transmission in the last years, the telecommunications infrastructure is expanding quickly. As a consequence, this industry has been consuming more and more energy, which has motivated research with the goal of making those systems more energy efficient. In this work a general revision of the network topology is made and some of the proposed solutions for this problem are studied, with emphasis on the load-adaptive model.
