Green data centers for cloud-assisted mobile ad hoc networks in 5G

Abstract

Cloud-assisted mobile ad-hoc networks are expected to be so popular in future fifth generation (5G) mobile network because the significantly faster performance of 5G communications enables clouds to provide realistic services. On the other hand, the energy consumption problem will become serious due to the highly increased cloud computing speed. Mobile communication link loss occurs when a mobile device leaves the network. Link loss can cause serious energy consumption when the lost link is directly connected to a cloud data server, which is required to do excessive searching and link routing transactions. None of the existing normal methods have solved the problem. We show how this problem can be solved using our proposed mechanism. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed mechanism saves nine times more energy than normal methods.
