      abstract = {In this paper we study static and dynamic ap-
proaches to energy efficiency in dense cellular networks, where
interference is one of the main limiting factors. We consider
the two main approaches to energy efficiency through adaptive
management of the network capacity: Base station (BS) sleeping
and cell zooming. We propose an analytic framework for the
assessment of the energy efficiency potential of several joint
planning and management strategies. Our approach is based on
stochastic geometry tools, on an approximate but accurate model
of interference, and on a detailed, measurement-driven power
model. For a given user density, we show how to derive the
optimal BS density, and the BS transmit power which minimizes
the mean power consumption of the network, while achieving a
target QoS level. Through numerical evaluations, we show the
potential savings enabled by joint (and disjoint) optimization
of transmit power and density of active BSs. For a realistic
network scenario, our approach suggests that huge energy savings
are achievable by combining sleeping and zooming. In addition,
we show that a static strategy, based on carefully planning the
density of installed BS and their transmit power, can achieve
most of the benefits of capacity tuning achievable through either
sleeping or zooming. This result has a very high relevance for
network operators, since it allows avoiding the feared decrease
in operational lifetime which the daily switching of BS entails.}
