Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques for dynamically transferring cell traffic to reduce power consumption are disclosed. A method for dynamically transferring cell traffic to reduce power consumption begins by determining a load on radio units that service a geographic area. A determination is made that the load on a first radio unit fails to satisfy a reduce power threshold. A determination is made that the load on the first radio unit satisfies a transfer threshold. The load on the first radio unit is transferred to at least a second radio unit such that the first radio unit satisfies the reduce power threshold. Then, a component associated with the first radio unit to turn off is selected. The component is turned off, causing the first radio unit to enter a reduced-power state.
