5g base station power supply and energy storage
The analysis results show that the participation of idle energy storage of 5G base stations in the unified optimized dispatch of the distribution network can reduce the electricity
The need to increase the number of base stations to provide wider and more dense coverage has led to the creation of small cells. Small cells are a new part of the 5G platform that increase network capacity and speed, while also having a lower deployment cost than macrocells.
When a user moves behind an obstacle, their cell phone automatically switches to the nearest small cell, maintaining a seamless connection. This ensures uninterrupted 5G network coverage for users. The image above depicts a typical 5G network setup, featuring both small cells and the main 5G NB (or 5G Base Station).
Increasing the frequency increases the speed of sending/ receiving signals and helps shrink the size of the antenna, which in turn shrinks the size of the cell. Shorter wavelengths result in a decrease in signal penetration and radius, reinforcing the need for small cells. How do small cells fit into the 5G ecosystem?
When a mobile device is close to a small-cell base station, the power needed to transmit the signal is much lower compared to the power needed to transmit a signal from a cell tower far away, thus extending smartphone battery life.
