4 FAQs about Power problem of a mobile base station

How do base stations affect mobile cellular network power consumption?

Base stations represent the main contributor to the energy consumption of a mobile cellular network. Since traffic load in mobile networks significantly varies during a working or weekend day, it is important to quantify the influence of these variations on the base station power consumption.

Why are base stations an inevitability?

These types of objects are an inevitability since they serve the purpose of providing signal transfer for data and voice between mobile mobiles. The idea of base stations is anchored in their function to provide coverage, capacity, and connectivity, hence allowing for extending the working capabilities of mobile phones and other radio gear.

What are the components of a base station?

Power Supply: The power source provides the electrical energy to base station elements. It often features auxiliary power supply mechanisms that guarantee operation in case of lost or interrupted electricity, during blackouts. Baseband Processor: The baseband processor is responsible for the processing of the digital signals.

Is there a direct relationship between base station traffic load and power consumption?

The real data in terms of the power consumption and traffic load have been obtained from continuous measurements performed on a fully operated base station site. Measurements show the existence of a direct relationship between base station traffic load and power consumption.
