On the one hand, the network planning should shift from peak-traffic oriented to dynamic-traffic oriented. On the other hand, the network operation should try to match the energy utilization with the traffic dynamics.

To support large-scale collaboration, cognitive synergy is exploited to collect the status of multiple radios and layers, namely the network state information. The collaboration maybe among multiple base stations (BSs), between BSs and relays, and among heterogeneous networks.
