Abstract: A base station may communicate with one or more other base stations. A first base station may hand over one or more wireless devices served by its cell to a second base station (e.g., a neighboring base station), for example, to save overall energy consumption in the network. Feedback information (e.g., one or more messages) associated with performance of the second base station after the handover may be provided by the second base station to the first base station help further decision-making related to handing over other wireless device(s).

Abstract: A base station may communicate with other base stations for handover decisions. Information about energy consumption of other base stations may be used by the base station for efficient handover decisions. Predictions of energy consumption may be exchanged before making a handover decision so that handover decisions may be based on energy usage.

Abstract: A method is presented in which a central unit (5-2b) of a split base station apparatus in a cellular communication system sends, to a distributed unit (5-2a) of the split base station apparatus, a first message comprising an information element for configuring the distributed unit (5-2a) of the split base station apparatus serving a UE (3) to report current measurement data representative of communication quality measurements. The central unit (5-2b) receives, from the distributed unit (5-2a) of the split base station apparatus, in a second message sent in response to the first message, communication quality measurements for the cell and/or beam currently serving the UE (3) under control of the distributed unit (5-2a) of the split base station apparatus.

Abstract: A base station may communicate with at least one other base station to perform a handover of a wireless device. Predictions of a signal quality may be used for the handover of the wireless device. Predictions of signal quality may be included in a handover request message and/or in a handover response message. A determination of whether to proceed with a handover of the wireless device to a target base station may be based on the predictions of signal quality.

Abstract: Base station cell activation/deactivation may be based on energy cost. A base station may communicate with at least one other base station to coordinate deactivation of a cell and/or offloading one or more wireless devices in the cell to at least one other cell. Determination of additional energy cost and/or capability for serving the offloaded wireless device(s) may be made to calculate overall energy saving and/or to ensure uninterrupted connectivity in view of the deactivation. Base station communication may improve energy efficiency by performing deactivation/activation of one or more cells based on energy usage.
