Technical FAQs 4

What are macro & micro base stations?

Macro and micro base stations are currently being deployed for 5G network. The base station is categorized into micro base station, macro base station, and sub-system based on the coverage range. Micro base stations are being deployed to increase coverage.

How much power does a micro base station use?

The power consumption of a single macro base station is approximately 5 kW, whereas a Pico Cell requires only about 10 W (Bolla et al., 2012; Deruyck et al., 2014; Hu & Yi, 2014). Deploying multiple micro base stations to cover the blind spots of a macro base station will reduce power consumption during operation, thereby reducing carbon emissions.

How should a micro-cell base station be accessible?

The locations of the micro-cell base stations should be accessible by foot for the safety of the maintenance personnel. In busy areas, access by vehicles for maintenance purpose would normally not be permitted during peak hours or the day time. No equipment should be confused with a prescribed traffic sign.

Why are micro base stations important in 5G planning?

Micro base stations, on the other hand, are smaller and more flexible, allowing them to supplement the peripheral communication that cannot be covered by macro stations, thereby improving communication quality and capacity. Therefore, micro stations play a critical role in 5G planning.
