Description The Green Radio project as a whole developed a suite of novel wireless communication techniques which greatly improved energy efficiency. For a cellular mobile phone network this improvement in efficiency was over a factor of 10. This has benefits for reducing both the operating costs of the network and its CO2 footprint.
Exploitation Route The energy saving techniques researched in this project can be applied to a variety of wireless devices and networks to save energy. Network operators can reconfigure their networks and device manufacturers can improve their products both to reduce cost and CO2 emissions.
