HOME / day ahead collaborative regulation method for 5g base stations
Emerging use cases and devices demand higher capacity from today's mobile networks, leading to increasingly dense network deployments. In this post, we explore the energy saving features of 5G New Radio and how this enables operators to build denser networks, meet performance demands and maintain low 5G energy consumption.
IEEE Spectrum A lurking threat behind the promise of 5G delivering up to 1,000 times as much data as today's networks is that 5G could also consume up to 1,000 times as much energy. Concerns over energy efficiency are beginning to show up at conferences about 5G deployments, where methods for reducing energy consumption have become a hot topic.
As a result, there are many more hardware components per base station. Björnson believes this will probably increase the total energy consumption of 5G base stations compared to 4G. But as massive MIMO technology develops, its energy efficiency may also improve over time.
This technical report explores how network energy saving technologies that have emerged since the 4G era, such as carrier shutdown, channel shutdown, symbol shutdown etc., can be leveraged to mitigate 5G energy consumption.
Therefore, 5G macro and micro base stations use intelligent photovoltaic storage systems to form a source-load-storage integrated microgrid, which is an effective solution to the energy consumption problem of 5G base stations and promotes energy transformation.
The photovoltaic storage system is introduced into the ultra-dense heterogeneous network of 5G base stations composed of macro and micro base stations to form the micro network structure of 5G base stations .
In this article, we assumed that the 5G base station adopted the mode of combining grid power supply with energy storage power supply.
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.
In terms of the network listening synchronization source selection, the best accurate synchronization source to GNSS should be selected. If the Home base station obtains synchronization without using network listening, the small cell requirement applies. The requirement is 3.475 μs but in many scenarios a 3 μs sync requirement can be adopted.
The Base Station shall use the same frequency source for both RF frequency Generation and the chip clock . The synchronisation reference extracted from the Iu may be used as UTRAN synchronisation reference. In principle (and in any case during loss of traceability from PRC), lower accuracy is sufficient (e.g. 16 ppb, as per Stratum 2).
The downlink frames transmitted by the serving base station and the Neighbour base station shall be synchronized to a level of at least 1/8 cyclic prefix length (which is equal to 1.428 μs). 3 μs for small cell (< 500m radius). For large cell (> 500 m radius), 1.33 + Tpropagation ms time difference between base stations,
The synchronisation reference extracted from the Iu may be used as UTRAN synchronisation reference. In principle (and in any case during loss of traceability from PRC), lower accuracy is sufficient (e.g. 16 ppb, as per Stratum 2). Common SFN (System Frame Number) initialisation time shall be provided for all eNBs.
