| Algorithm 2 Post processing procedure for finding the final active BSs. |
| Initialization: let , the network power consumption and the iteration index . Step 1: Update the iteration number . Step 2: Let , and solve problem . Step 3: If problem is infeasible, go to Step 5; Otherwise, go to Step 4. Step 4: If , go to Step 1; Otherwise, go to Step 5. Step 5: Obtain the final active BS set . Step 6: Solve problem and obtain the final network power consumption , beamforming and AN (i.e., ). |
