 **Project Description & Goals**:\\ With an increased demand for wireless networks like 5G to rising 6G comes an increased use in energy consumption and operational costs (OPEX). This project will involve creating a digital twin model of a network in order to test which specific units (radio or distributed) need to be turned off in order to be energy efficient. We will be testing different configurations of these Open-Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) components to see which would be most energy efficient.
+**Project Description & Goals**:\\
+Rising demand for next-generation wireless networks, from 5G to 6G, is driving up energy consumption and operational costs. This project will build upon existing work and the current codebase of a digital twin model to test which specific units in Open-Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) can be turned ON/OFF to optimize energy efficiency. Our group will explore various configurations of O-RAN components to determine which setups can best maintain network coverage during different types of traffic loads periods.
