Qos Constraints-Based Energy-Efficient Model for IP Networks

Abstract:

This paper proposes an energy-efficient model to overcome the energy-efficient problem in large-scale IP networks, based on QoS constraints. To characterize network energy consumption, we present a link energy consumption model based on the sleep and speed scaling mechanisms. If there is no traffic on a link, let it sleep, or activate it and divide its energy consumption into base energy consumption and traffic energy consumption. And then according to the link energy consumption model, we can build our energy-efficient model to improve the network energy efficiency. Finally, simulation results show that our model can significantly improve the network energy efficiency.
