Minimization of Sum Inverse Energy Efficiency for Multiple Base Station Systems
A sum inverse energy efficiency (SIEE) minimization problem is solved. Compared with conventional sum energy efficiency (EE) maximization problems, minimizing SIEE achieves a better fairness. The paper begins by proposing a framework for solving sum-fraction minimization (SFMin) problems, then uses a novel transform to solve the SIEE minimization problem in a multiple base station (BS) system. After the reformulation into a multi-convex problem, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is used to further simplify the problem. Numerical results confirm the efficiency of the transform and the fairness improvement of the SIEE minimization. Simulation results show that the algorithm convergences fast and the ADMM method is efficient.
