Comparison of Molten Salts and Thermal Oil in Parabolic Trough Power Plants for Different Sites and Different Storage Capacities by Jürgen Dersch, Michael Karl Wittmann, Tobias Hirsch

“…The ternary salt mixture with a lower temperature limit of 170 °C and an upper temperature limit of 500 °C shows the lowest LCOE for all sites and almost all investigated storage capacities. Molten salts as heat transfer fluids are particularly favorable for sites with high irradiation and plants with large storage capacities of more than six full load hours.…”

Joint energy efficiency and spectral efficiency optimization algorithm for UDN under the restriction of interference threshold and backhaul capacity by Xuanli WU, Xu CHEN

“…Aiming at the scenarios which consider the constraint of backhaul capacity restriction and interference threshold in ultra-dense networks (UDN),an integer linear programming (ILP) and Lagrangian dual decomposition (LDD) based joint optimization algorithm of energy efficiency and spectrum efficiency was proposed.In the proposed algorithms,the user association problem with the constraint of limited backhaul capacity was modelled as an ILP problem and then finished the connection between the user and the base station of microcell by solving this problem with dynamic programming method.Therefor,Lagrangian dual decomposition (LDD) was applied in an iteration algorithm for spectrum resource allocation and power allocation.The simulation results show that compared with traditional schemes,the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the energy efficiency and spectrum efficiency of system and use the microcell’s load capacity more efficiently.…”
