Next-generation telecommunication networks, envisioned under the 5G umbrella and beyond, are expected to create a paradigm shift over current LTE/LTE-A systems by supporting at least a 1000-fold increase in data traffic, driven by a diverse set of new applications. The emerging Internet-of-Things (IoT), which promises to connect people to almost anything remotely, is expected to play a major role in this increase. In supporting these requirements, sustainability will become a critical concern, as the energy consumed by the communications sector already leaves a significant carbon footprint.

在5G保护伞下及以后设想的下一代电信网络预计将通过支持由各种新应用驱动的数据流量的至少1000倍增长来创建当前LTE/LTE-A系统的范式转变。新兴的物联网（IoT）有望将人们与几乎任何远程设备连接起来，预计将在这一增长中发挥重要作用。在支持这些要求时，可持续性将成为一个关键问题，因为通信部门消耗的能源已经留下了大量的碳足迹。
