Firstly, the model of 5G base stations considering communication load demand migration and energy storage dynamic backup is established.
What is a 5G communication base station?The 5G communication base station can be regarded as a power consumption system that integrates communication, power, and temperature coupling, which is composed of three major pieces of equipment: the communication system, energy storage system, and temperature control system.
How a 5G base station has changed the performance of a base station?To meet the communication requirements of large capacity and low delay, the commissioning of new equipment has significantly improved the performance of 5G base stations compared with the previous generation base stations. At the same time, the new equipment has altered the power load characteristics of base stations.
How much energy does a communication base station use?In this region, the communication base stations are equipped with energy storage systems with a rated capacity of 48 kWh and a maximum charge/discharge power of 15.84 kW. The self-discharge efficiency is set at 0.99, and the state of charge (SOC) is allowed to range between a maximum of 0.9 and a minimum of 0.1. Figure 3.
Why do communication base stations use battery energy storage?Meanwhile, communication base stations often configure battery energy storage as a backup power source to maintain the normal operation of communication equipment [3, 4]. Given the rapid proliferation of 5G base stations in recent years, the significance of communication energy storage has grown exponentially [5, 6].
What is the energy consumption of 5G communication base stations?Overall, 5G communication base stations’ energy consumption comprises static and dynamic power consumption . Among them, static power consumption pertains to the reduction in energy required in 5G communication base stations that remains constant regardless of service load or output transmission pow
