Abstract

C-RAN is a promising new design for the next generation, an important aspect of it in the energy efficiency consideration. Hence, it is considering an innovative candidate to use it as an alternative cellular network instead of the traditional. Investigation green transmission of mobile cloud radio access networks based on SWIPT for 5G cellular networks. Especially, with considering SWIPT as a future solution for increasing the lifetime of end-user battery’s, that’s mean this technique will improving energy efficiency (EE). Addressing SWIPT into C-RAN is a challenging and it is needed to developing a new algorithm to use it on the cellular network with many trying to ensure the success of the system performance. C-RAN as a network and SWIPT as a promising technique with the suggesting green wireless network are discussed besides the importance of energy efficiency for the next generation. Furthermore, there was a study on fifth enabling technologies that can be used for 5G with emphasis on two of them (C-RAN and energy efficiency). Lastly, research challenges and future direction that require substantial research efforts are summarized.
