Coordinated scheduling of 5G base station energy
To enhance the utilization of base station energy storage (BSES), this paper proposes a co-regulation method for distribution
During main power failures, the energy storage device provides emergency power for the communication equipment. A set of 5G base station main communication equipment is generally composed of a baseband BBU unit and multiple RF AAU units. Equation 1 serves as the base station load model:
AAU is the most energy-consuming equipment in 5G base stations, accounting for up to 90% of their total energy consumption. Auxiliary equipment includes power supply equipment, monitoring and lighting equipment. The power supply equipment manages the distribution and conversion of electrical energy among equipment within the 5G base station.
The power supply equipment manages the distribution and conversion of electrical energy among equipment within the 5G base station. During main power failures, the energy storage device provides emergency power for the communication equipment.
At the same time, the new equipment has altered the power load characteristics of base stations. In the 5G technology framework, the 5G base station comprises macro and micro variants. The micro base station serves indoor blind spots with minimal power consumption. The macro base station exhibits greater potential for demand response.
