Abstract: The rapid expansion of 5G networks and increasing user equipment (UEs) necessitate innovative approaches for improved energy efficiency. UE-to-UE communication is a promising solution, leveraging nearby UEs for efficient data transfer and reducing reliance on macro cells. We present the dynamic resource optimisation - green communication protocol (DRO-GCP) for 5G, using fuzzy logic (FL) to optimise energy-efficient UE-to-UE routing. DRO-GCP includes phases of network deployment, route optimisation, and D2D transmission. It calculates parameters such as UE speed, energy consumption, bandwidth occupancy, and connection quality using type-2 FL to identify over-utilised UEs. During transmission, the transmitting UE requests relay UEs, evaluates their responses, and selects optimal relays, ensuring reliable data transfer while minimising network overhead and CO2 emissions. Simulations show DRO-GCP improves energy efficiency by 2.3-10.6% over existing methods, enhancing throughput, delay, energy consumption, and packet data ratio. This protocol offers a promising solution for energy-efficient 5G D2D communication.
