Why do 5G base stations need backup batteries? As the number of 5G base stations, and their power consumption increase significantly compared with that of 4G base stations, the demand
In this article, we assumed that the 5G base station adopted the mode of combining grid power supply with energy storage power supply.
In the optimal configuration of energy storage in 5G base stations, long-term planning and short-term operation of the energy storage are interconnected. Therefore, a two-layer optimization model was established to optimize the comprehensive benefits of energy storage planning and operation.
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.
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.
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.
The power consumption of a single 5G station is 2.5 to 3.5 times higher than that of a single 4G station. The main factor behind this increase in 5G power consumption is the high power usage of the active antenna unit (AAU). Under a full workload, a single station uses nearly 3700W.
