Optimization of Zero-Energy Buildings Based on Multicriteria Optimization Method by Jianda Chen, Xingwei Dai, Xingwen Cai

“…By establishing a basic model, the performance parameters such as insulation thickness, typical outer window, window-to-wall ratio, and their contribution rates within the threshold range are optimized for energy conservation; simulate the energy consumption of the determined multiperformance parameter combination scheme, select the most energy-saving scheme, and calculate its energy-saving contribution rate; calculate the life cycle cost of the above schemes, select the scheme with the lowest cost, and analyze its economic benefits; select energy-saving cost and economic benefit, and calculate energy-saving contribution rate and economic benefit. …”

Status of Water Quota for Residential Building Construction and Compilation of National Standards by BAI Le, LI Enkuan, FU Xinfeng, JIA Yifei

“…Considering that there is no national standard for water quota in constructing residential buildings,this paper summarizes the existing problems in water quota compilation for residential building construction in 31 provinces of China and teases out related concepts and their connotations in this regard.On this basis,the construction area and water consumption of residential buildings during the construction period are investigated,and scientific and reasonable water use boundary and measurement benchmarks are established.Given the published provincial water quota,a clustering analysis method is used to partition and classify the water consumption quota,and the water quota is calculated by empirical and statistical methods.Combined with the requirements of the current water-saving policy and the actual water use,the water quota value is finally determined.The results show that the standard rate of the provincial water quota is12.5%~40.0%.This quota takes into account the actual water use and water-saving potential of residential building construction at this stage and can measure the water-saving level in the future period.The water quota is reasonable,scientific,and advanced,which can be used in the application and approval of temporary water use for residential building construction,as well as water-saving management such as the management of planned water use.In this way,the standard system of the water quota in China is further improved.…”

Micro-station sleeping algorithm based on coverage area priority in 5G network by Ziren WANG, Yi LI

“…With the maturity of 5G mobile communication technology and the rapid growth of the number of mobile terminals, the problem of intensive energy consumption of 5G wireless communication system base stations is prominent.A micro base station area hierarchical sleep algorithm was proposed.Considering the impact of micro base station load, inter station distance and inter layer cooperation on micro base station sleep, the transitions number of the micro base station in the overlapping coverage area between macro base stations is less, and the priority sleep operation has a good energy-saving effect.The simulation result shows that the energy-saving rate is 23%, which can adapt to different network sizes, and the energy-saving effect is better in large-scale networks.…”
