Abstract
Integration of green energy harvesting (EH) technology with non-renewable energy (RE) source has shown a remarkable aptitude for maintaining cellular network sustainability. This paper proposes an energy sustainable framework to increase self-reliance and network feasibility of the remote cellular base stations (BSs) in Bangladesh with hybrid power supply. As a result, this paper address an aggregate solar PV, wind turbine (WT), diesel generator (DG) power supply solution with adequate energy storage device for remote radio head (RRH) enabled macro BSs in the context of Long Term Evolution (LTE). A hybrid optimization model for electric renewable (HOMER) software is used to analyze the system performance in terms of optimal design architecture, energy yield analysis, cost assessment, and carbon footprints varying different parameters. The ultimate goal of the optimization process is to minimize the use of fuel consumption through maximizing green energy utilization. Results investigate the long-term viability of the proposed scheme regarding least net present cost (NPC).
