Green communication is an innovative research area to find radio communication and networking solutions that can significantly improve energy efficiency and resource efficiency of wireless communications without compromising the QoS of users. It contributes to global environment improvement and achieves commercial benefits for telecommunication operators. The main goal of designing green base stations is to save energy and reduce power consumption while guaranteeing user service and coverage and ensuring the base station's capability for evolution. In a wireless network base station, power consumption is the biggest issue. With global warming and energy crises becoming the most compelling environmental challenges, green solutions are a common issue to be handled. Hence, the primary focus of the “Green cellular network” is saving power in base stations to “care for planet and operator’s valet.” we reviewed a few techniques for saving power consumption and improving energy efficiency in base stations. However, many technical challenges for base station architecture redesign, heterogeneous network deployment, radio resource management, etc., need to be addressed for energy-efficient base stations.
