Power saving in a wireless communication network
Abstract:
Various example embodiments relate to power saving in a wireless communication network and, in particular, an apparatus and a method to determine a threshold to establish whether a cell of a group of cells supporting network coverage in an area of a wireless communication network should enter or exit a power saving mode. In particular, aspects may provide: prediction circuitry configured to predict a future load in a group of cells supporting network coverage in an area of a wireless communication network based on historical load data for the group of cells; and determination circuitry configured to determine, based at least on the predicted future load, at least one threshold load value for establishing whether a cell of the group of cells should enter or exit a power saving mode.
