Abstract EN
Disturbance and disaster scenarios prevent the normal utilization of mobile networks.
The aim of this study is to maintain the availability of cellular networks in disturbance scenarios.
In order to extend the disaster time functionality, energy usage optimization is needed to maintain reasonable coverage and capacity.
Simulations performed with different network layouts show the effects of choosing only a portion of evolved node B (eNB) macrosites to operate at a time.
Different sets of three to nine three-sectored eNB sites are selected to study how the network would perform with a limited number of eNB sites.
Simulation results show how the mobile network availability duration can be sustained by selecting a set of eNB sites to operate at a time and still maintain a reasonable service level and availability in disturbance scenarios.
An increase of 100% to 500% can be achieved in the duration of “backup coverage” in cellular networks with backup batteries when the percentage of active eNB sites is reduced down to 20%.
