Technical FAQs 4

Are lithium batteries suitable for a 5G base station?

2) The optimized configuration results of the three types of energy storage batteries showed that since the current tiered-use of lithium batteries for communication base station backup power was not sufficiently mature, a brand- new lithium battery with a longer cycle life and lighter weight was more suitable for the 5G base station.

Does a 5G base station use energy storage power supply?

In this article, we assumed that the 5G base station adopted the mode of combining grid power supply with energy storage power supply.

Why should a 5G base station have a backup battery?

The backup battery of a 5G base station must ensure continuous power supply to it, in the case of a power failure. As the number of 5G base stations, and their power consumption increase significantly compared with that of 4G base stations, the demand for backup batteries increases simultaneously.

What is the inner goal of a 5G base station?

The inner goal included the sleep mechanism of the base station, and the optimization of the energy storage charging and discharging strategy, for minimizing the daily electricity expenditure of the 5G base station system.
