Green Cloud Computing for Multi Cell Networks [Elektronisk resurs]

• This paper investigates the power minimization problem for the user terminals by application offloading in multi-cell multi-user OFDMA mobile cloud computing networks where some practical constraints such as backhaul capacity limitation, interference level on each channel and maximum tolerable delay as user's quality of service is taken into account. Furthermore, the mixed integer nonlinear problem is converted into a convex form using D.C. approximation. Moreover, to solve the optimization problem, we have proposed joint power allocation and decision making (J-PAD) algorithm which can make offloading decision and allocate power at the same time. Simulation results illustrate that by utilizing the J-PAD algorithm, in comparison with baselines, considerable power saving could be achieved e.g. about 30% for delays more than 100 ms.
