ABSTRACT
This article presents an energy consumption analysis of two different
emulation scenarios of a GSM (Global System for Mobile)
network; one with a traditional computer and another with Raspberry
Pi 3. The network is created by open-source software that
emulates the main modules of a GSM network, this emulation combined
with a radio generator equipment enables calls and message
exchange between network users. The CELCOM project designs
and implements community networks in digitally isolated regions,
the scenarios presented in this article can be applied in works of
CELCOM project. The power distribution service of this GSM network,
in isolated regions, does not have the required stability to
maintain the quality in community networks, creating a demand for
an alternative power system. Different scenarios are proposed and
analyzed in this work, trying to get a lower energy consumption
