Energy consumption of wireless networks is dramatically increasing due to the persistent growth of wireless users, devices, applications and the demand of challenging performance. Hence, the convergence of wireless communication systems and green solutions becomes natural and critical. In addition to the environmental benefits, other motivations for having green solutions include economic benefits to the operators (less energy cost) and practical benefits to the users (longer battery usage). Thus, it is now indispensable to shift from pursuing optimal spectral efficiency to efficient energy usage when creating future wireless networks. Besides, it is accepted that emerging technologies of massive multi-antenna systems, dense heterogeneous networks, cloud radio access networks, M2M (machine to machine) communications and energy harvesting communication systems will be part of future wireless networks (5G networks and beyond).

由于无线用户，设备，应用程序以及对挑战性能的需求的持续增长，无线网络的能源消耗大大增加。因此，无线通信系统和绿色解决方案的收敛变得自然而关键。除了环境利益之外，拥有绿色解决方案的其他动机还包括对操作员的经济利益（能源成本较小）和用户的实际收益（较长的电池使用）。因此，现在从追求最佳光谱效率转变为创建未来无线网络时的有效能源使用是必不可少的。此外，人们认为，大规模多ANTENNA系统，密集的异质网络，云无线电访问网络，M2M（机器到机器）通信和能源收集通信系统的新兴技术将成为未来无线网络（5G网络及以后）的一部分。
