UN Goals:
• SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
• SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities.

Justify UN Goals selection: The emphasis on energy efficiency in macro radio units (RUs) aligns
with UN Sustainable Development Goals 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and 11
(Sustainable Cities and Communities).

Industry: Efficient energy utilization in macro RUs aligns with the industry's objective of
optimizing operational costs and resource allocation. By reducing power consumption,
telecom operators can enhance profitability while ensuring sustainability and compliance with
regulatory standards. Moreover, energy-efficient RUs enable operators to extend connectivity
to underserved areas, fostering economic development and social inclusion.

Innovation: Innovation in macro-RU energy efficiency drives technological advancements and
fosters the development of smarter, more sustainable solutions. Emerging technologies such
as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning enable operators to optimize power usage
dynamically, adapting to changing network conditions and traffic patterns. This innovation
not only enhances network performance but also contributes to environmental sustainability,
paving the way for a more resilient and efficient telecommunications infrastructure.

Infrastructure: Energy-efficient macro-RUs form the backbone of robust and resilient
telecommunications infrastructure. By minimizing energy consumption, operators can deploy
network infrastructure in remote or energy-constrained areas, expanding connectivity and
bridging the digital divide. Additionally, optimized energy usage ensures the reliability and
stability of the telecommunications network, enabling uninterrupted service delivery and
enhancing overall infrastructure resilience.

In future developments, we aim to focus on standardizing the components involved in our
use case, particularly the Programmable Baseband, Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and PA Inputs,
PHY Connections, Mod/Demod Processing, Multicore Processor, Communication Interfaces,
Data Consolidation, and AI Prediction Model. Standardization ensures interoperability and
compatibility across different systems, facilitating seamless integration and deployment of
AI-driven optimization solutions in 5G networks. This standardization effort will streamline the
development process, improve scalability, and promote industry-wide adoption of energy-
efficient and resource-optimized network architectures.

Standards development related to the use case Elaborate proposal: We first give the description
of the blocks used in attached XML diagram Programmable Baseband:

Programmable baseband refers to baseband processors or units that can be reconfigured
or programmed for various signal processing tasks. Unlike fixed-function processors,
programmable baseband offers flexibility to support multiple communication standards
