Cellular network nodes should be dynamically switched on/off based on the load requirements of the network, to save power and minimize inter-cell interference. This should be done keeping into account global interference effects, which requires a centralized approach. In this paper, we present an architecture, realized within the Flex5GWare EU project, that manages a large-scale cellular network, switching on and off nodes based on load requirements and context data. We describe the architectural framework and the optimization model that is used to decide the activity state of the nodes. We present simulation results showing that the framework adapts to the minimum power level based on the cell loads.
