Abstract:
A communication system and method for operating or evaluating the communication system includes powering a plurality of base stations each operating in at least a sleep mode and an active mode, wherein the base station operates in the sleep mode with less power consumption than in the active mode; analyzing an overall power consumption for powering the plurality of base stations with respect to a grade of service of the communication system; and switching at least one of the plurality of base stations to operate between the sleep mode and the active mode based on a result associated with the overall power consumption and/or the grade of service. Each of the plurality of base stations in sleep mode is further arranged to pass a service request to a nearby base station in the plurality of base stations such that the service request is handled by the respective nearby base station.

Claim (Index 19):
The communication system in accordance with  claim 17 , wherein the base station operating in the sleep mode is arranged to overflow the service request reaching the respective base station to a surrogate base station of the plurality of nearby base stations, wherein the surrogate base station is operating in the active mode.
