The increasing pent-up demand by users for new and emerging wireless services is driving the need for future generation broadband (high capacity) wireless networks, such as the Beyond-Fourth Generation (Beyond-4G) mobile cellular networks. However, the energy consumption of such broadband wireless networks is becoming a serious concern, not only because of increased operational expenditure to the network operators (due to the escalating cost of energy nowadays) but also in terms of the associated environmental impacts arising from carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, as the electricity used to power the wireless network infrastructure is generated by fossil fuels. The main goal of the proposed research is to make the future generation broadband mobile cellular networks energy efficient, to be environmentally friendly, and economically sustainable. I propose to design, analyze and evaluate original and innovative network architectures and protocols to achieve the above goal. Specifically, I shall investigate both the heterogeneous base station network and cooperative relay network architectures. My research will propose and discover energy efficient protocols and algorithms for data transmission, multiple access and resource management, and also exploit the characteristics of wireless applications and services to achieve energy efficiency. I shall study the interactions amongst the protocols proposed at different layers to further achieve increased energy efficiency. Novel theoretical techniques will be developed for performance evaluation, to gain valuable insights. My research will offer a solution to one of society's needs: achieving a green environment, through a reduction in the carbon footprint induced by future generation broadband wireless networks. Furthermore, my proposed research program will provide technical training in energy efficient broadband wireless networking to graduate students whose highly desired skills are vital for continued growth of the Canadian wireless industry.

用户对新的和新兴的无线服务的要求不断增加的需求正在推动对未来一代宽带（高容量）无线网络的需求，例如第四代（超过4G）移动蜂窝网络。但是，这种宽带无线网络的能源消耗成为一个严重的关注，这不仅是因为对网络运营商的运营支出增加（由于如今的能源成本不断上升，而且还因为与二氧化碳（CO2）相关的环境影响而言，由于用来为无线网络基础架构供电的电力而产生的电力是由fossil fails fales by possiil fail fige。拟议的研究的主要目标是使未来的宽带移动蜂窝网络节能，以环保和经济可持续性。 我建议设计，分析和评估原始和创新的网络架构和协议，以实现上述目标。具体来说，我将研究异质的基站网络和合作中继网络体系结构。我的研究将提出并发现用于数据传输，多重访问和资源管理的节能协议和算法，并利用无线应用程序和服务的特征来实现能源效率。我将研究在不同层提出的方案之间的相互作用，以进一步提高能源效率。新颖的理论技术将用于绩效评估，以获得宝贵的见解。 我的研究将通过减少未来一代宽带无线网络引起的碳足迹来满足社会需求之一：实现绿色环境。此外，我提出的研究计划将为能源有效的宽带无线网络提供技术培训，这些研究生对加拿大无线行​​业的持续发展至关重要。
