As well as the demand for higher data rates goes on, the rising energy costs and environmental concerns have also led researchers to increase energy efficiency in terms of bits-per-Joule. Cooperative communications with low power nodes, switching off under-utilized cells due to low traffic load and energy efficient radio resource management are some of the energy saving methods.
