Dynamic Power Management Based Call Pattern Recognition for Telecommunication Equipments

Lately around the world the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) industry has taken interest in reducing the power consumption of ICT equipment. Communications service providers are especially interested in the so-called Green-IT technology, hoping to reduce the power consumed by the large numbers of telecommunications equipment they operate in order to provide their services. Although a lot of research has been conducted into reducing power consumption, the developed methodologies are not effective to adapt them to telecommunication equipments. In this dissertation I will propose a method to actually reduce power consumption by implementing a Call Pattern Reorganization-Dynamic Power Management (CPR-DPM)-based call pattern policy, which follows subscriber connection patterns over time, in telecommunications equipment (specifically equipment located in the Central Office) of IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS)-based telecommunications networks.
