In the new communication world, telecom base stations are the superheroes of communication networks ，with the ability to let people communicate anywhere and anytime. Due to size demands for a safe and power-saving communication facility, it is of importance to look into how exactly these base stations work and what they are made of. The article presents an in-depth analysis of the issues related to telecom base stations with particular attention to power supply systems and systems integration for the new generation of outdoor base stations.
Telecom base stations are important nodes of mobile communication networks ,providing wireless communication between user equipment ,such as mobile phones ,and core networks. In simple terms, a base station is a "transfer station" for a signal,ensuring it is sent, received ,and processed to keep communication services alive.
Macrocell base station: This type offers large-area coverage that is capable of covering huge geographical areas. Usually, it gets mounted on tall buildings.
Microcell base station: Mostly covers small areas with lots of users, for example, shopping streets or large shopping malls.
Picocell and Femtocell: These base stations are intended for small indoor areas, for example, an office building, a shopping mall, or a residential house.
Ensuring a reliable power supply is paramount for the continuous operation of telecom base stations. The energy supply system comprises various components that work in tandem to provide uninterrupted power.
Grid power: City base stations are powered mainly by the grid, just like power is supplied to our homes.
Renewable energy: Solar energy and wind energy produce electricity in remote areas or in locations where grid access is absent.
Battery energy storage system (BESS): In the event of a blackout, it is the battery that stores electricity to run the base station.
Diesel generator: During extended power outages, the diesel generator will be called for use as backup power.
Rectifier module: A device has been implemented to carry out the rectification process, wherein alternating current (AC) is converted to direct current (DC) ,energizing the base station equipment.
Inverter: At times, when DC needs to be converted to AC, the inverter performs this operation.
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller: It makes sure the solar panels generate power at the highest efficiency.
Monitoring unit: the "little housekeeper" that constantly watches the operation of the power system to see if everything is going fine.
The outdoor base station system is designed not to allow communication services to be destroyed by any hostile environment.
Weatherproof enclosure: shower equipment with rain and wind protection.
Cooling system: ensures equipment runs at optimum temperature and does not overheat.
Mounting structure: for holding antennas and other equipment firmly in position.
Outdoor base station systems are usually integrated with renewable power:
Solar panels: transform sunlight into electricity.
Wind turbines: capture wind energy and generate electricity in areas where there are constant winds.
3.3 Energy storage and management
To ensure the base station operates at all times:
Battery pack: stores excess power to prevent the base station from "striking" when there is no power.
Energy management system: it monitors and regulates the power flow to make power utilization and power storage more efficient.
Reliability: Less downtime; the services shall always be available via the Internet.
Cost reduction: Use of renewable energy to cut down on operating costs.
Environment friendly: Less carbon footprint, enabling green energy.
Ability to scale: Allows for fulfilling blossoming energy needs.
