Abstract: A method of reducing gray energy consumption and achieving optimal gray energy saving for carbon neutralization is proposed. In a cellular network, each cell or BS (group of cells) has renewable (green) and non-renewable (gray, on-grid power) energy sources. The renewable (green) energy is highly variable and unpredictable, while non-renewable (gray, on-grid power) is stable but is not renewable and thus has more carbon impact. Each cell or BS (group of cells) services is associated UEs when it is on. In one novel aspect, a cell or BS (group of cells) that consumes more non-renewable energy can give some or all of its served UEs to another cell or BS (group of cells) that consumes less non-renewable energy.

Abstract: A system and a method for viewing, curating, and displaying in-person events through videos and photos that are posted by event creators on social media. More specifically, the method discusses multiple ways to access details and participate in an in-person event, by swiping or scrolling through videos and photos that are posted on a mobile application. The method allows users to browse through events, express interest in preferred events, and categorize multiple in-person event postings according to user's preference, with the help of personal mobile electronic devices. The method further enables users to search for events based on time, location, rate, etc. Furthermore, the method of the present invention enables interaction between event creators and people of similar interests. Additionally, the method enables users to invite people through links and messages and thus allow users who create events to be able to advertise events and themselves in an appropriate manner.
