Technical FAQs 4

Are 5G base stations energy-saving?

Given the significant increase in electricity consumption in 5G networks, which contradicts the concept of communication operators building green communication networks, the current research focus on 5G base stations is mainly on energy-saving measures and their integration with optimized power grid operation.

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 does a 5G network work?

The 5G network is the wireless terminal data; it first sends a signal to the wireless base station side, then sends via the base station to the core network equipment, and is ultimately sent to the destination receiving end.

How to evaluate a 5G energy-optimised network?

To properly examine an energy-optimised network, it is very crucial to select the most suitable EE metric for 5G networks. EE is the ratio of transmitted bits for every joule of energy expended. Therefore, while measuring it, different perspectives need to be considered such as from the network or user’s point of view.
