IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of "Green
Communications and Networking for 5G"

The previous four generations of cellular technology is already being
deployed. Research efforts are now being shifted to the fifth-generation
(5G) communication systems. Indeed, 5G will need to be a paradigm shift
that includes very high carrier frequencies with massive bandwidths,
extreme base station and device densities, and unprecedented numbers of
antennas. However, unlike the previous four generations, high speed data
transfer and ubiquitous connectivity among various types of devices will be
provided by integration of LTE and WiFi.

Due to the explosive increase of energy consumption, it is essential for
governmental and industrial institutions to address this problem.
Therefore, the development of green and energy-efficient 5G communication
systems has recently become an important topic in communications. It is
envisioned in such cases to become necessary to meet the growing demands
for high data rate with limited resources. Addressing problems in green
communication and networking will hopefully allow us to reach the
realization of sustainable development.

In addition to the highly visible demand for data rate, there are a number
of other factors that make green communications and networking for 5G
challenging, including re-allocating bandwidth driven by market, the
possibility of an “Internet of Things” comprised of billions of
miscellaneous devices, the virtualization both in the core and edge
network, the new application of millimeter wave (mmWave) spectrum, and the
way of past and current cellular integration as well as WiFi standards. A
ubiquitous high-rate and low-latency experience for network users with low
energy consumption is the ultimate goal for 5G implementation.

The need for green communications and networking technologies has been
recognized during the last few years by our research communities. However,
many challenges still remain to be addressed. This Special Section in IEEE
Access is intended to encourage high-quality research in green
communications and networking for 5G, and push the theoretical and
practical boundaries forward for a deeper understanding in fundamental
algorithms, modeling, and analysis techniques from academic and industry
viewpoints. Authors from both academia and industry are invited to submit
papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of green
communications and networking for 5G, including algorithms, modeling,
technologies and applications. The topics suggested can be discussed in
terms of concepts, the state of the art, standards, implementations and
evaluation, and running experiments and/or applications.

The list of topics includes, but is not limited to:

•Green Multiple access/modulation schemes beyond OFDMA
•Energy efficiency technique and method for re-allocating bandwidth
•Theory and modeling for energy-efficient mmWave communications
• Analysis and optimization for energy-efficient mmWave communications
• Green massive MIMO techniques
• Green Device-to-Device Communication
• Architecture, strategies and/or algorithms for green networking
• Protocols, scheduling, and/or designs for green networking
• Security, privacy, and trust issues of green networking
• Data storage, data centers and data offloading for green networking
• Big data analytics for green networking
• Energy efficiency technique and method for HetNets integration (inc. Wifi
integration)
• Energy efficiency method and protocols for Internet of Things
• Energy efficiency aspects of Cloud RAN and other highly novel cooperative
techniques
• Standards, policy and regulation for 5G communication systems considering
energy efficiency
• Energy efficient hardware, devices and designs for 5G communication
systems
• New technologies and research trends
